I just had a look at the link and it's just a picture of a HP SAN. Do you still use it?
I would like to host at home as well as I have around 10 fulltime SQL backend websites and it would just cost too much to professionally host it. I am thinking about using CityCable and as the name suggests it is cable. Never used cable before and there is no mention of an option to have a static IP. Anyone had experiences with hosting from home on a cable connection? Specifically, has anyone used CityCable and managed to successful host at home at all?
Another question, my ISP back home in OZ had the option to have a static IP so I never had a problem with having to update the A record in DNS. If by chance I did have to change the A Record to another IP it would take around 1 to 2 days before that change is updated around the world. So my question is how affective is a Dynamic DNS solution? If the IP changes then surely there is potential for the site to be down for 2 days.
