Hi I am from the USA and I am looking for a dedicated host. I looked at OVH but they don't accept americans :? I was wondering how much bandwidth I would actually need, or do I need to get unmetered. And could anybody suggest a cheap host for USA? Unless somebody is willing to order from OVH for me and I will give you the money.

OVH = Bad.

Traffic can be calculated this way:

for 1 Player, you will roughly use 1 GB / Month. That's what I had months ago.

lol 1 player = 1GB are you out of your mind dude?

Last month I used 14GBs of bandwidth for 40-50 people...

I also have a website hooked up to my host...

If your from the US, you can get the best deals man, why the hell would u go to OVH...

Try servers in TX, they are usually the cheapest and the best priced, ask for a dedicated server with 1200GBs Bandwith, is their lowest amount offered.

www.server01.com <--German server (English language ofc)

Imo DO NOT buy an American server. F.B.I is American. It doesn't have any power on Europe , nor does NCZ0ft on Europe , so they'll find u if u have an American server.

Hi..

I personaly use http://www.godaddy.com. Has very good prices and services... Till 30/6/2009 everyone who going to use that cupon gdr0623aw will have 30% discount on domains. I don't have L2 server yet but i am planing to buy one.
Some questions: The server must be dedicated or a simple server do the job...???
Reading the above comments i stand speechless, why need so much bandwidth...??? There is a way to lower the needs of it...???

Thanks

I am not a lawyer nor anything like that, but here is what I know...

If you host from USA there is a chance that you'll get a visit from FBI, because afaik in USA reverse engineering = illegal. The thing I don't know if it does apply to L2j aswell because the project began before there was any eula (or something like that)... not sure - but in Europe I think that if you don't host any copyrighted materials from NCZ0ft, they can't do anything.

If you want to see a bright future for your server get a dedicated one, for sure.

I use this one: www.hetzner.de

best prices around I've seen... No windows but, why windows? :p linux was always easier for me, and excellent support. I know I've said many times hetzner and so on, I am not advertising anything, but I really think it's the best in quality/price/support, so I'm just sharing info of what I think is the best deal you can get in Europe.
