Anyone use onecolocationservices.com ? They offer 100mbps/month at $300 - GoFuckYourself.com

They website is crappy. I don't trust companies with crappy websites.

Then again, I'm a sucker for a good deal.

Go with your instincts and save yourself some headache. There is not a provider in the world that can profitably and actually provide 100mbps for $300. Even the larger Tier one networks that peer off their traffic to other networks (like Level3, MCI, etc) consider their cost per megabit for peering to be at least in the $5-8/mbit range.

if you don't know how bandwidth works then ask here.

Not even Yahoo could sell bandwidth that cheap, in fact not even if they used verio or cogent crap.

woj · 02-19-2006, 08:03 PM

maybe they mean 100mbs=50mbps up + 50 mbps down, but even then the price sounds too good to be true...

SinisterStudios · 02-19-2006, 08:42 PM

no way no know, thats just too good of a deal to believe

noam · 02-19-2006, 08:45 PM

oh well. So how much should I expect to pay for 100mbps?

Considering the Chinese have 100mbs connections in their homes I could see one of them trying to resell it to suckers.

Damn! For only $25 a month... Sounds so FAR AWAY from the situation here in the Philippines... very expensive infrastructure. It's beginning to get cheaper...(Php 999 a month from crappy PLDT) but its still a long way from 100mbs for $25/mo.

That's a good question. I don't know but I would imagine it's no less than 25mbs up.

But who needs all that downstream capacity? Really? What the fuck are they going to do with it?
