They do offer 100 Mbit umetered solution. We want use it for vedio broadcasting. How much BW I can pust per month from 100Mbit port.

They will cap you to 10 mbps if you will push more than 20-30 mbps for at least 1 hours. That is if you go with their regular dedicated server offer however you can add some deditaced bandwidth plan which gives you growth opportunities for a fairly cheap price of quality Level-3 bandwitdh.

Hi KingAdmin,

Can you give me more description about level-3 BW?. How do we level the BandWidth?

Thank Yo

Well, Level-3 it the name of the company which is known for its outstanding bandwidth quality. More details -> http://www.level3.com/

They have their uses. If you are just trying to push a lot of bandwidth cheap they're great. If you are looking for a fast and reliable connection they're far from great. If you use them for the right purpose they're good, if not you're not. I would never put paid hosting customers on that network.

we have 8 servers with FDC , 3 servers with EV1 and 3 servers with SM

We`ve been with FDC for 2 years now and I have to say they rule. Last year their network was little shaky but last 10 months were awesome. Our uptime has been over %99.9 constantly - more close to %100.
After they added Level3 bandwidth things became even better , especially our online gaming customers are very happy.

Generally if you`re looking on great deal on bandwidth it doesn`t get much better than FDCservers

Thank You for sharing your review. Our site is hosted with EV1 now. If you have choice between EV1 & FDCservers.net, whom do you go with?.

Thanks

I think EV1 has way better network than FDC so if you're looking for good uptime go with them, though if you need cheap bandwidth for little money choose FDC.
