Dedicated Server Updates, Price Reductions
We’re making a few updates to the Roller Network dedicated server lineup: The Pentium G6950 with 4GB of RAM ($109) will no longer be available. The Intel Core i3-540 with 8GB of RAM will now be available for $121 (old price $149). Prices on the Xeon X3440, Opteron 6134, and Opteron 6174 options are being [...]
A Year With Utility Power
It dawned on us that it’s been a while since we’ve had a power outage or phase imbalance requiring us to switch to generator power (although we do test every two weeks on load), so we did some digging and discovered that indeed the last time there was a utility power outage was back on [...]
Colocation Power Updates
All power to full racks will now be provisioned with 20 amp 208 volt three phase service with a three phase PDU. The pricing and power offered will remain the same, but the upgrade from included power will now be a “soft” (billing) change rather than requiring the outlet and PDU to be physically replaced. [...]
New Main Website
If you’re visiting the main website at www.rollernet.us today (and in the future) it’s possible that you’ve noticed it’s now sporting an entirely new design.
RollerNet Wireless Internet in Reno/Sparks
Earlier this year we had the opportunity to set up a radio tower to help out a tenant in a building situated in an industrial area about 6 miles north of us that’s under the same ownership as the building we lease space in. The area has extremely limited options for internet access – pretty [...]
Wireless Internet Access Expansion
We’ve added a “microcell” service area for our wireless internet access from the roof of our operations center. This service area is intended to cover our neighbors in most buildings near the following Reno streets: Airway Dr., Delucchi Ln., Barron Way, Louie Ln., Longley Ln., Maestro Dr., Double R Blvd. (between Longley and Maestro), Innovation [...]
Now Using EV SSL Certificates
We’ve recently added Extended Validation Certificates (EV) to acc.rollernet.us and webmail.rollernet.us. These locations will now show the “green bar” in browsers that support EV (which is pretty much every modern browser).
Mid-July Update
It’s been pretty quiet on here lately, but we’re still here. There’s two major things going on right now: First off, we’re working on some cosmetic changes for the account control center (nicer looking notify/warning/error message displays) and a mass-update function for Primary DNS that will allow you to change matching records in selected zones. [...]
World IPv6 Day
World IPv6 day is on June 8, 2011. On this date for 24 hours, many major IPv4-only sites will be temporarily offering their content over IPv6. Some of them have already adopted IPv6, but are not publishing AAAA records for their primary well-known domain. For example: www.google.com has IPv6 at ipv6.google.com www.facebook.com has IPv6 at [...]
