Network Layout
We run our own network!
That means we are not dependent on providers to make routing changes. If you have problems with a connection, let us know and we'll change the routing to the best possible route we can offer! This kind of service can not be matched anywhere else. We run our own BGP (Border Gateway Protocol out of AS35908 and AS4213) Check out the CIDR report to see how large the VPLS backbone ranks up!
Krypt's diverse network allows for better routing and peering which gives the user better connectivity. We have a five main colocation centers in Santa Ana, Orange, One Wilshire in downtown Los Angeles, California and 2 other nearby facilities at DIgital Reality Trust and USCOLO. The five sites are connected via a dedicated dual path dark fiber circuits and a 40Gbps DWDM wavelength. We have Tier 1 providers such as 20Gbps to Time Warner Telecom, 10Gbps to Level 3, 20Gbps to Cogent, 10Gbps to Global Crossing, 20Gbps to TINET/Tiscali and 20Gbps to Teliasonera. With over 100Gbps per second of transit and 20Gbps of local peering at any2Exchange and Equinix LA peering fabrics. All this amounts to one thing, lower pings, no packet loss and no choke.
Although the ping is a good indication of how well your server will likely perform, it should not be the determining factor when choosing a hosting provider. Trace route outputs provide a more detailed routing plan of how you are connected to the server. Since Krypt has multiple data providers we assign customers to various providers based on geographical location, ping, and trace route reports. We do not charge you extra to route through Level 3 or Time Warner as other companies do.

Your Connection Won't Be Clogged
Don't be fooled by web hosting companies that say they offer 100 Mbps unmetered for less than $150 or so. The reality is that you do get a 100Mbps port, but you're also on a shared switched with 48 or even 96+ users which then has a 100Mbps uplink to the core switch or out to the Internet. What does that mean for you? Simply put, you don't get 100 Mbps if your neighbor and his neighbor are fighting for the same amount of traffic. You'll probably end up getting less than a sustained 2Mbps of average transfer. This leads to collisions, TCP re-transmits and in the end a very non-enjoyable experience if your were an IP packet. This is horrible for video streaming, Camfrog, VoIP, and gaming.
With Krypt Dedicated Unmetered Bandwidth packages you get a server connected to a 100Mbps switched port on a private VLAN, to a switch that is Dual 1Gbps connected to our core switches for redundancy and throughput. We offer 5, 10, 25, 50 and 100Mbps packages. Our switches are never oversubscribed and our providers are Tier 1. There is no cheap or low end transit providers to choose from with us, we'll route you over the best provider that gives you the best latency for whatever it is you need to do.
We even provide our very own SpeedTest app to help customers see how fast and strong their connection is to our datacenters.
