And depending on who he actually spoke to at VM, they may not have even had a clue which connection is being used for peering, and no influence over it.

I asked tech support to pass it onto the network team on the newsgroups when people were having issues accessing any server inside the OVH DC. I actually asked twice, and so did a friend, both times I was told it was passed along, and my friend was also. If 3 times isn't enough I don't know what is.

In that instance you'd hope they escalate the issue if they don't know how to resolve it.

There's a fault ticket raised with networks isn't there?

There was. I believe its probably closed as the VM/OVH issue was supposed to be resolved now.

.

AFAIK, SuperJANET is run over dedicated links, and is all its own network (logically anyway). The logical network is all operated by JANET. I remember reading it in one of the newsletters anyway.

I wouldn't mind betting Virgin inherited a ton of dark fibre, and JANET are just leasing it. I remember them saying who it was leased from, but I don't recall who.

I used to have an OVH server and had problems about 8 months ago, but it seemed to sort itself out after about 2 to 3 weeks. I am thinking of getting a new OVH server, especially now that bandwidth from OVH to the Internet is 200mbit not 100mbit on their dedicated servers, although I think the Kimsurfi ones are still 100mbit to internet.

AbyssUnderground · 27-04-2009, 19:41

Only servers with a 1Gbps port get 200Mbps to the internet but this is excluding all Kimsufi's. Only ovh.co.uk servers with 1Gbps ports get it.

JANet take fibre from all over the shop. Ex-ntl, Ex-Telewest, Cable and Wireless, Colt, Easynet, BT, whoever can get the job done at the right price!
