How fast an internet site shall open would depend not only on the Internet connection of the site visitor, but also on the connection of the hosting machine where the site is hosted and on the network infrastructure - routers, server network card, etc. Slow connection or hardware which cannot deal with a high volume of inbound and outbound traffic may have powerful impact on the user experience of your visitors and the functionality of your internet site as people shall probably see error messages that the site is not available or it shall take a long time for your content to load. In the event that this sort of a thing takes place, it's not likely that the visitors shall revisit the website. For this reason you ought to always check out the connectivity of any server that you purchase and not only the main hardware components which include hard disk drive, processor and physical memory.

Server Network Hardware in Dedicated Servers

The Linux dedicated service that we provide include gigabit network cards which are tested together with all other hardware components before and after any new hosting server is put together so as to make certain that we will never employ a faulty part that could cause an issue eventually. We also employ the most current hardware for our internal network in the Chicago data center where we offer the dedicated plans. This includes routers, switches and hardware firewalls that can handle massive inbound and outgoing traffic to any server, while any traffic that isn't legitimate shall be blocked and shall not take up your system resources. The uninterrupted access to the facility is ensured by using redundant backbone Internet suppliers. This way we ensure the fast and stable connection to all our hosting machines, which means that your websites and apps will be up and running at top speed all the time.
