Sorry...I saw PA and I just starting naming companies that I knew. I figured that they would be close enough. I'll keep looking for you...

This one appears to have one in Hagerstown:http://www.cavtel.com/wholesale/

This one in Rising Sun, Md.:http://www.globix.com/network/

Here is a listing of available companies on a 13 page pdf:http://www.level3.com/userimages/dot...0Directory.PDF

The Globix also has listing for sites in PA but I'm not familiar enough with PA to know if they are near you.

Where are you seeing their datacenter locations? I just spent far too much time on the first two sites and came up empty.

For cavtel, look at the map. Collocation are flagged at both Harrisonburg and Hagerstown.
See here: http://www.cavtel.com/graphics/whole...orkAssets2.pdf

A phone call might also be in order.

You have to scroll down to see the various locations in PA. Again, maybe a phone call?

I wasn't able to reach anyone around lunch time, but will try again tomorrow. I never seem to have time during normal hours. I'll try some emails in the mean time. Thanks!

TechGuy, what about housing the servers at your house and paying for a connection with extra upload bandwidth? I'm sure people here would be more then happy to help donate to pay the difference in your internet bill

The quality of electricity and bandwidth in a real datacenter isn't really the same as what you get in your house.

Plus it's a controlled environment, security, maintenance, etc.

We're in the process of building a new location for my local computer business -- which will include new HVAC, security, etc. I wouldn't mind having them there, and even buying a generator down the road, but the cost of getting a decent connection will probably be HUGE. I'm getting some prices anyway. Of course, the connections wouldn't be redundant as they would be in a datacenter, but if the price is right, it might be something to consider. I'm looking at all of the possibilities!

How is this effort going? I really don't want to see TSG disappear!
