Is this question meant for me? I think I am not in the position to tell if our products are better than those from other providers. All I can tell is that we are a "genuine" provider with an own international backbone and NOC and own hardware - so no resale from anyone.

People who don't believe that can look up our ASN which is 44042

So answer me this question please.

Can i order 4 of your servers and the setup fee be waived?And also get the 20% of?
So i want to buy
4XServer DS2000 for some of my customers to test.

I am not here to discuss discounts, but if you read my first post carefully you should already know the answer to that question.
We do not give discounts to new customers. We have no welcome gift option and from the past we learnt that these ask-for-discount customers are often those who leave you after two months because they found a competitor who is 1.99 EUR cheaper, or something like that.

I am not saying that we don't do discounts. But only after knowing the customer for a while, when he has a history in our accounting database.

So please do not abuse this thread to ask for special prices. I am here to answer technical questions and to give you an idea how we work.

Well to be honest with you i wasnt abusing your thread in any way i was asking for the discount you acctualy show on your website being a reseller.
Good luck with your hosting.

dwdm- Can you please reply to when you will offers Windows 2003 Server as an OS option? It was mentioned on WHT that it would be but it still isn't an option in the OS section when checking out.

Win2k3 is officially not supported by us - for now. Besides that, seedboxes also run on Linux

I have DS2000. My other friend said for 100mbit it's really slow... =(

I wasn't downloading anything that time when I was testing... let me know what you guys think

Speeds on server.lu's servers leave alot to be desired. I wont be renewing next month and I know of a few other people having the same speed troubles and they wont be renewing either.

Guys, think for a moment please...

This speedtest from OVH is less than 4ms and on a test server in Roubaix - that is INSIDE the kimsufi colocations. I would really worry if you did not get speeds of +- 90 MBIT/s.

Your speed test on server.lu was made from a server in Brussels which is NOT inside our colocations and thus very unlikely to give you full 100 MBIT/s on a single session.

If we had a speedtest.net server inside our colocations, you would see 90 MBIT/s too.

I would not rely on these results, but I guess you know better than me...

P.S. on speedtest.net FAQ you can more or less read what I just said:

"Won't locations without a local testing server be at a disadvantage in the rankings?
- Unfortunately yes. But our goal is to get quality testing servers in every major city around the globe. If one does not exist in your region and you can provide one, please do so. Since the average speeds are based on only the top speeds for IP addresses, a new host in a region can quickly boost the local rankings."

Again: doing speedtests from one OVH server to a different OVH neighbour server and compairing this with a speedtest from a server.lu server to an external server does not make any sense and should not be used to make decisions.
