Only 10days to go before one of my ADSL lines has been up for a year (Line up time)...
System up: 357 days 10 hours 3 minutes
Line up: 355 days 16 hours 45 minutes
Will it make it?

I hope so, as I've just cooked myself a pizza, and over spiced it up with chilli powder and jalapenos...

Made it to a year! That must be an ADSL record!
System up: 367 days 1 hours 26 minutes
Line up: 365 days 7 hours 2 minutes

And in that time, the router has uploaded 270Gb to the Internet (ISP figures), 170Gb of which is OOF (weblog figures)!
(Remember when you browse OOF, its my Upload you are predominantly using).

Fair play, thats some going!
What about the future, are you continuing to host, or looking to 'professional' hosting?
-
Very nice indeed!
Do I recall you saying that's a Zen service?
Just regraded mine to 8mb so we'll see how that goes. It very very rarely went down when it was 576kb/s. Have been really happy with them.

Who knows about the future....
The problem with professional hosting (in our price range) is that the servers get hammered to hell, with resulting performance problems. Look at the issues we had with Hosting Unlimited this time last year - the thing was effectively down (or 5 min page loads) several times a day. OK, I'm the first to admit that Hosting Unlimited are worse than most, but that fact remains.
Our current 'professional hosting' that we use for images has seem some slowdowns (and outages, though they have swapped the hardware - its great to have a host who works with you rather than against - take note HU!), and often shows job queues longer than I would like. BTW, images are with professional hosting as I wouldn't have the bandwidth to provide.
We would need to look at a dedicated server to get the performance we have come to expect - in effect we have had a dedicated server for nearly a year - and that costs money. I would say around £50 per month for dedicated, possibly more depending on our bandwidth requirements.

Yes, Zen Internet, on a legacy product - the MaxDSL products are much less stable (and often slower) if my BT MaxDSL line is anything to go by.

Will have to keep an eye on that. There's no route back to the product I was on so if I'm not happy with it there may be an ultimatum.

Zen legacy for me too!
1meg, fastest my line will support
something daft like 100gig cap
fast and reliable.
Not cheap though :( But you get what you pay for!

And with Zen, the cap is for download only - most ISPs add upload and download to cap...

Its MaxDSL, not the ISP that is unstable. And BT always said they would contend Max much more (legacy was only ever lightly contended across BT's portion)
