I can't help but notice your site appears to be hosted on a ADSL2+ connection.

You are more than 2ms from Chime/iiNet/wholeever, if you were in a datacentre this would be less than 1ms and even if a different building in Perth it'd be 3-4ms max NOT 21-35ms like a metro ADSL connection

You've been giving a layer 2 service (aka ADSL), otherwise the hop before you would be on a different subnet

It dosn't look like its an ethernet service but rather an ADSL service.

You just said you didn't use ADSL now you admit it?

Broadband fiber - blow it out your ass, it dosn't use any DSL/ATM overheads... Broadband fiber is where they delivery the same contentions ratios that are on DSL, but use it to "on net" a building and sell some capacity at a loss to attract users to it.

This is an ADSL service NOT a hosting service. Hosting shouldn't be done on an ADSL service.

Ok sorry Oz Colocation to quote you.

I can't help but notice your site appears to be hosted on a ADSL2+ connection.

Its typical for Perth Data, Your better off being hosted in the states or singapore if your on the east coast because a) your latency is not much differnet b) your gaunteed proper dc controled facilities.

And no i dont mean to be a ***** here, so i'm sorry if i offend people but even people from perth think their data isnt so great unless its from an educational network...

Ozcolocation most people over estimate there bandwidth requirements, were are not very big, and currently have more than enought to cater for our clients and future client through the use of multihoming and load balancing separate connections

It not cool to attack another webhost, I'll end up doing more damage to your rep and business than good. No body like a wise guy.

-Mark

Why lie in a public forum than? I belive ADSL isn't a sutiable medium for web hosting. Why you make ask? Well not only does it have conention ratios on it but line faults can happen and will affect your customers greatly. No load balancing can avoide that.

I've been doing this a long time so I know my stuff and most around here will agree.
