    Not a hope, costs too much. Just found out that the server is still waiting to be couriered. Wont be in Adelaide until next week.
    GU - giving everyone the freedom to post whatever they want...
    so long as we can all pay them out if they missed an earlier thread on the same topic!

    I might be heading up to sydney for a day trip in 2 weeks. I can probably fit in an hour or so to plug it in.

    instead with all the donations GU gets, if there are some still? can we just pay for a dedicated ADSL2+ line into OD's or recs house?

    GU does about 50gig traffic a month. And that's JUST the website - throw gameservers into the mix and it's nowhere close to being a doable proposition. I'll be redoing the box from scratch while it's here and have a few other ideas on how to make sure we don't have extended downtimes again - more on that soon.

    got to remember, most of GU's traffic is outbound. ADSL2+ is not well suited to handling that task.

    you'd have to move to America for it. australia doesn't do T-x lines. but the equivalent is basically cost prohibitive. the gu hosting is a good deal, and there is more redundancy and remote rescue options planned for the server to hopefully avoid this in the future
