looking for deal like 1and1 root server

I am looking for a deal like 1and1.co.uk with there dedicated servers. In particular for there "Unlimited Traffic with 100 MBit data transfer speed". I would order from them but I can not as I am in the states. Was woundering if there was another company that offered the same?

I have 1and1 root server in the states but would like to have the same in uk.


Thanks
Enrique

There are plenty of suppliers in the UK that can provide a server on an unmetered 100Mb/s conection, both contended and uncontended.

What is your budget ? What spec machine do you require ?

With that budget, you'd be going on a seriously contended 100mbit uplink which, I suppose, is what you'd probably be used to with 1&1 anyway.

Why do you want unmetered bandwidth? Why not just get a provider that offers you a large amount? 1000GB is standard these days and there are some offering 2000, 5000 and even more. An unmetered connection is likely to cost alot because providers assume the worst in that its probably going to get used quite alot.

I think the 1&1 unmetered package is subject to a "fair use" limit of 1000GB?

Yup

This traffic limit can be overridden via the Control Panel in incremental 250GB steps. Full 100MBit bandwidth can also be manually restored. This process can be repeated as often as necessary within a billing cycle without incurring additional charge.

1&1 work on the hope that the people who fall for the slick marketing, don't know enough to know they're not getting what was advertised, where Unlimited means 1000Gb/month and 100Mb/s means so overcontended that hitting 10Mb/s is impossible

So an equivalent box will be:
P4 2Ghz
1Gb Ram
80Gb HDD
10Mb/s Network connection
1000Gb/month Transfer
No Support
Plesk 30 Domain Licence

- there should be a number of UK suppliers able to provide this at the £100/month price.

Yep, we've had to explain this to a few customers, they don't read the small print of these offers or understand them fully in how they are made commercially viable.

Hi

am not sure how 1&1 are, but i recall about 5yrs ago i got a dedi from them for dev work, and they only give 1 IP :s and the support wasnt the best.

For UK servers I recommend www.49pence.com
