HawkHost Review
Sep 3rd
I have being switching web hosts for this blog all the time to get the most of it. You can see the spirit if you browse my other topics about web hosting reviews. Yes I have been grounded by exams for past 4 months and I didnt had internet on that time. Before that this blog was hosted on burstnet vps. You guys know that hosting on VPS takes attention because we need to watch the changes to see if there are any problems on the unmanaged server.
Like said its a hassle to host on VPS or dedicated server for past 3 months because I never knew what happened on that time. So I decided that I need to go for managed shared hosting for ease. And took a look at webhostingtalk to select a nice and cheap shared web host. I thought for going with lightspeed server platform is the best choice because not only I wanted speed loading but also curious to see how it performs.
Lightspeed is very fast compared to apache and now its the latest trend to run litespeed by shared hosts. So after reading some reviews I thought I should choose Hawkhost I saw that was a professional looking host on the main page and decided to give it a try.
After few hours later I recieved the confirmation and account info email. Then I begun to upload files and I saw its very fast when uploading to server. Hawkhost’s guys use latest server hardware available in the planet to serve their users. Their Dual Quad Core Xeon E5520 and 15K SAS drives impressed me. Now Im using hawkhost for past 3 months and I must say thats amazing and I didn’t even had a minor downtime.And another best thing is they didnt hide anything from public I mean they publish all the glitches,downtime,Upgrades on their forums.
My pages loads fast ( You can clearly see) their support guys helped me to clarify some wordpress issues and they are very helpful. Their live chat is not available most of the time but they are responding to support tickets very fast. Overall my experience is nice and I must say that Ill stay with hawkhost shared hosting till my site grow up for dedicated hosting.
Positive-
- Litespeed Platform
- Extreme Server Hardware
- Cool support guys
- Cheap
- Reliable
- Informative
- Fast ticket response
- Best shared host that I found in my journey
Negative-
- Not any for past 3 months but if they provide 24 hour live chat support thats great!
Thats it folks go ahead and by from hawkhost I told you!

I think you know the meaning of locked dongles. That means that dongles locked for using one career which you bought the modem from.
There are various unlocking methods to use 99% of them costs more than $10 . In this method you didn’t require to buy anthing from anywhere but you needs to register on the forum http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/ to obtain your unlock code from one of their members. Im 100% sure that you will get your unlock code within 15 minutes from their member base. There are unlock code calculators which can be used to obtain codes easily but they are not 100% accurate some times so its risky to try them some times because if you enter unlock code wrong more than 10 times the modem will lock permanently So you it will need some advanced operation to remove that lock. So I presume you registered on the forum now.
After registering there go to the thread http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=781410 Please do not ask for unlock codes in other threads because that thread is the only place to ask for codes.
On that thread place new post mentioning your modems model ex- Huawei E156G (which I tested) And your IMEI number (you can see that on the housing of the modem)
Ex post-
Please help me to unlock my modem
Model- Huawei E156G
IMEI- 359390*********
Usually withn 10-15 minutes you will get unlock code from some member there in reply to your post -
Ex-
Voila. After obtaining your code download this simple software to enter the unlock code to your HSPA modem- Download it here – http://www.sagmaster.com/download/10SMTi/HUAWEI_MODEM_Code_Writer.rar
Then run it-
Click detect and slect your modem from list then click accept.
Then click Unlock Modem and enter your 8 digit unlock code that you got from the forum members-
Then click ok. Whopas Its done. Next post will be about activating hidden voice calling feature for free in many huawei modems. Enjoy your unlocked modem and use it wisely.
Dreamhost 1 year review
Apr 18th
- First of all THIS IS NOT A PAID OR SPONSORED POST BY DREAMHOST
Still RuchiraBlog is hosted on Dreamhost’s shared servers. I got it like free 1 year domain registration and 1 year hosting for just $9.99 When they had promotion. So its a freaking deal.
For first impression I thought dreamhost is just FLOP because of this insane price and they must be overselling it.
No I got it wrong. According to domaintools report (whois.domaintols.com) The current server only hosts about 44 domains compared to hostgator they hosts about 400 sites in a server. When checking with SSH server only consumes lower %10 memory usage for running the sites. And I must say servers are very stable and i only got few moments of downtime and dreamhost was kind enough to inform about downtimes on their status blog www.dreamhoststatus.com most of web hosting companies fear to do this because they think it will affect for building up future customer base because they can read it then avoid hosting there if thinks something wrong going on.
Skype stops support for windows mobile
Apr 16th
Skype = FML for windows mobile now. For me is disaster because I love windows mobile so much because its multitasking capability compared to junk iphone. My Samsung Blackjack II which is on windows mobile 6.1 can run 13 applications by default simultaneously. But simple hacking can move it further. How about Iphone? =FML Piece of junk cant run even 2 . But apple says OS4 supports for multitasking.
However few months ago Skype announced that they stopped supporting for skype on windows mobile versions.
Top $200 Alternative to Apple Ipad
Apr 14th
If you think Ipad is nothing more than Android OS ,Wifi and its mobility. And if you think that Apple Ipad’s super bright glossy screen and super duper touch screen are not important to you (however this alternative device is touch screen device). Chinese Market has a better solution for you for just $200 at the time of writing. ( Price can be lower afterwards). Greatest thing is this Android netbook is powered by Android and ha built in wifi you can download apps in android app store! And this one costs only $200 with free shipping to any country!
BurstNet VPS Review
Mar 2nd
This blog is hosted on Dreamhost proudly. But for high traffic web sites shared hosting is not enough. I have proxy site www.hidedaddy.com which consumes lots of resources to run because high traffic. So hosting on VPS (Virtual Private Server) or in Dedicated server is must need. After trying loads of scammers in Digitalpoint (www.forums.digitalpoint.com) I took my decision to move to BurstNet www.burst.net VPS. They are in top position of providing dedicated servers and newly introduced VPS services for their customers. After reading reviews on webhostingtalk and digitalpoint (there were many bad reviews too) I decided to buy their cheapest package in start. You can find the packages here – https://www.burst.net/linvps.shtml . I got this package-
| VPS PACKAGE #1 | ||
| VPS Software: vePortal™ / OpenVZ™ | ||
| CPU: 1000MHZ GUARANTEED | ||
| Memory: 512MB GUARANTEED | ||
| Disk Space: 20GB (RAID BASED CONFIG) | ||
| Bandwidth: 1000GB/MONTH | ||
| IP Addresses: 2 | ||
| Management: BASIC MANAGED | ||
| DDOS Protection: CISCO™ GUARD | ||
| FREE SETUP | $5.95/MONTH |  |
After ordering I got my VPS working within 24 hours. So I installed kloxo which is my favorite server administration tool and settled up sites on there. So now 2 months passed and I have to said that I didn’t had even 1 minute of downtime and my sites running speedy and smoothly than ever.
For price of shared hosting you can get better VPS. But you have to manage the VPS yourself unlike managed shared hosting plans.
So here is my rating about BurstNet VPS service-
- Price- 10
- Speed- 10
- Worth- 10
- Nodes- Brilliant (Quad Core)
Please note that this is not sponsered review or something like that. (BurstNEt paid me nothing for this review)
