Yes - But could you answer the following for me :


I've had my Kimsufi server with you for over 1month do the new bandwidth rules apply to me and if not -- I would take out the "Standard series" for my Kimsufi server -- It says Traffic /month Unlimited -- So if i'm right in thinking all traffic is unlimited to my server but i will be slowed down once i get to a certain limit of traffic -- Is the traffic limit the same as on the traffic series? If i hit the limit do the following speeds apply which i see listed in the - Limit and excess (monthly) Bandwidth at 95% box ...

Yeah thats why i dont need the full 100mbps connection -- Yeah i know what peering is and transit -- But wanted to know what they meant by what they said -- I thought maybe they would be blocking certain things -- Anyways

Right i'm looking at going "Standard series" for my Kimsufi server -- It says Traffic /month Unlimited -- So if i'm right in thinking all traffic is unlimited to my server but i will be slowed down once i get to a certain limit of traffic -- Is the traffic limit the same as on the traffic series? If i hit the limit do the following speeds apply which i see listed in the - Limit and excess (monthly) Bandwidth at 95% box ...

In the other thread Oles stated that between 11am and 1am you get 5mbit to Transit.
Transit = Parts of the internet that OVH pays per mbit/gigabyte to access.
Peering = Parts of the internet that is free for OVH.

This means that speeds to certain areas/ISP's will be great (100mbit), and certain will be limited to 5mbit.

They will always be able to access it - but downloading huge files may be a bit slow.
5mbit for a website/forum is more than enough.

I dont need 100mbps all the time on my kimsufi server - So if i was to select the Standard series for my kimsufi server would i get unlimited traffic per month and what speeds would i expect to get ? -- Also it says OVH to Internet (Transit) Not guaranteed between 11am and 1am ?? What does this mean ? Will people over sea's not be able to access my websites on my server or would they be getting slow bandwidth speeds???
