I wouldn't go so far as to say that penguin.

Although she didn't say it, looks like breezy has a dedicated server plan.

The bandwidth pricing is clearly listed and they even specify to call for burstable pricing and bandwidth >5MB

Quote:
Bandwidth** $75 $130/mo per 1Mbit up to 5MB
DNS*** $25 $0

*For Burstable Pricing Call.
**Bandwidth >5MB call for pricing.
***Per domain

No, I don't have a dedicated server plan. I'm just getting hosed I think.

Hi Bree,
All bandwidth billing is in Mbits. If you log in to the bandwidth monitor will will see what you are using in real time in MBits.

Any questions let us know.

Sincerely,
XSH Operations Support.

They also told me I'm averaging 10mbits per month.

I guess what is confusing everyone is perhaps the interchangeable use of terms - MB which is MegaBytes, vs. Mbits

I will say this. I've been looking off and on for a half hour and I still have yet to find their TOS.

Thanks ANTO/TW, I'm new to this and didn't realize I was messing up the terminology :)

Who is the host, if I might inquire? I would like to see if their site defines such arbitrary thresholds plainly.


*heehee Someone is out of practice *lol*

http://xservhosting.com/

Domain servers in listed order:

NS0.XSERVHOSTING.NET 63.219.151.3
NS1.XSERVHOSTING.NET 205.234.154.1
NS2.XSERVHOSTING.NET 66.117.40.198
NS3.XSERVHOSTING.NET 216.129.109.1
NS4.XSERVHOSTING.NET 69.26.190.254


Oh hush. I simply did not read the post that stated the url. :)


Which plan do you have? I see 40MB as the bottom end plan, which seems to exceed by a wide margin your 4.0 Mb concept.

BTW, xervhosting is owned and operated by XSH (XServHosting) out of Newport Beach CA, but was registered via melbourneIT.com which implies AP connections.
