> 10Gbps for 300/month!

That's hilarious, if they actually can deliver.

I might go and try that for a bit :)

My current total commit is 6 Gbps, and I'm paying substantially more than that.




They can deliver (for now). They do prioritise servers on the network so these servers are getting better bandwidth than most others that I have seen.

The only problem is that they will wise up eventually and fix the issue (especially when you've just walked away with 500TB!) so it is quite a gamble.

If you do ever get a HG-10G Large from them and get bored of it, I will gladly take it off your hands. (Possibly throwing in something to help with the set up fee depending on how much I need it).


No, that's not hilarious. It's a typo or a scam.

1 Gbit/s (one Gbit/s) flat will set you back at least around 5000 EUR/month. 1 Gbps (that would be eight Gbit/s) for 300? Yeah. Right.


read the ops comment a bit more carefully, it is because of a technical limitation at the hosting facility that they can't enforce their data cap.


You are right, I should have paid better attention (the provider is, apparently, not themselves advertising this "feature").

Regardless I still don't see the point of highlighting a loophole that is obviously going away in the short term.

Au contraire the existence of this flaw should a be strong indicator against using said ISP. Do you really want to trust your stuff to them if they can't even get their own billing straight?
