This is what they offer for free:

Domain/Subdomain
PHP
More then 250 megabytes of space.
Unmetered E-Mail accounts.
Unmetered MySQL AND Oracle databases.
FTP access to your account!

Usually used for game based sites, but still it works with any. PHP/Cpanel and many others. I build many of my sponsored clan sites there. Great deal. Not sure how much bandwitch though. So enjoy...... http://FiaNetworks.com

[20:39] <ingisk> How much bandwidth do u give?
[20:40] <@DraginX[FiA]> As much as you need, however if you're going to be using a excessive amount (like, i fwe need the bandwidth) we will suspend your account and ask you to go somewhere else or give us a lil bit of cash to supply bandwidth.
[20:40] <@DraginX[FiA]> But this one guy is using 7 gigs
[20:40] <@DraginX[FiA]> and he is fine =)
[20:41] <+r3-cs|fLip> :-D
[20:41] <+r3-cs|fLip> im using 1 gig of bandwidth right now

Does FiaNetworks.com displays banner ads and/or pop-ups on user pages?

How can they offer

More then 250 megabytes of space.
Unmetered E-Mail accounts.
Unmetered MySQL AND Oracle databases.
plus a lot of bandwidth etc


for free :confused4 :confused4

stanz
July 4th, 2004, 20:30
yes, for uni.cc:
get a subdomain host, after that pm the admins at they`re board or mail them for uni.cc domains.
the board is based at here (http://fianetworks.com/forum)
for ads/banner? no, not forced but allowed.
very nice host, you should try it.

stanz
July 4th, 2004, 20:31

Kyogre

Yeah, it looks like it's down. But nonetheless, it seems great. If the domain is free, I'm in! :D

QuestionMark
July 5th, 2004, 12:00
they are down but its awesome and under my cpanel it says unlimited space :)

Zee
July 5th, 2004, 13:23
You don't get domain free you have to use the sub domain you apply for.
It's a great host.

ftpserver
July 5th, 2004, 13:35
yes a good host, but.... it's more then 6 hours down.

When is the site working :cry2:

trevorf
July 7th, 2004, 12:44
For the past few hours its been down. Wonder why, server is still there ... but think it's stuck or something, ftp gets to a certain point ... think apache is buggered, they don't have that many users just yet though.

MyInternet
July 7th, 2004, 15:00
....they don't have that many users just yet though.

1.500 accounts that have been all created in the last 10 days is quite a lot, in my opinion :wink2:

Besides this, http://fianetworks.com is working fine for me :-)

MyInternet
July 7th, 2004, 15:32
Hmm :confused4

Down again, but it looks like they are working on it :wink2:

sgt_outlaw
July 9th, 2004, 22:45
You really can't expect too much stability for something offering this much, though sometimes after a little it will settle down.. plus if you get an account before they if they do stop free hosting you may get to keep a cool host :-P haha

Okay.. thats just wishfull thinking i think

if you all read the FAQ your sites have to be Gaming Related. So many will get shutdown.

MyInternet
July 10th, 2004, 21:05

I really hope FiaNetworks does not delete all non-gaming related sites :frown2:

There's nothing about this in their FAQ, but maybe they plan to change it :confused4

Not true, already asked admins.

but you can use for others too

MyInternet
July 13th, 2004, 14:36
Yeah, it's a great host, but ....

At the moment you can use FiaNetworks only
for testing and non-critical websites :confused5

rajanurs

When a free hosting offer sounds too good to be true,
in most cases it is :book:

Definition of Free Hosting:
Feel free to search for a new host every month - for free!

Nothing work :shame: pirate2 :tired2:

khalil
July 14th, 2004, 07:34
the site is still down but does anyone have the url for the "Backup Forums"

Knobby
July 14th, 2004, 09:59
nope sorry!

nickle
July 14th, 2004, 10:04
The URL to the emergency forum should be here: http://draginx.proboards23.com/index.cgi

However, they don't really use it.

MyInternet
July 14th, 2004, 13:30
Yeah, that they don't use the emergency board is just one more sign
that most likely another great free host went out of business :smash:

The issue with the cPanel license was the first warning sign :nervous:

How long has FiaNetworks been in business? 2 weeks? :cry2:

Zee
July 14th, 2004, 13:38
No long time.

nickle
July 14th, 2004, 17:33
I'm very sure it will be back soon.

Enigma09
July 14th, 2004, 17:53

soon as in tonight?

astigin
July 14th, 2004, 20:15
hope they will be online agen... or use their emergency board.

trevorf
July 14th, 2004, 20:52
Well I've been monitoring this host also ... have an account with them also. Seems that hey ain't using the emergency board too. Anyway, messaged the admin on msn, no reply. I'll message once more when he appears online, and see if I can get some response back.

khalil
July 14th, 2004, 23:06
you cant even make an account in the backup forum .
but i think you need to give them a bit of time to get things organised
i sure it is not easy to start a free webhosting service and they are probally
learning how to run it as well, but they should keep us informed as what is going on

astigin
July 14th, 2004, 23:48
it wud be nice for them to use the emergency board. so that we will know the status.

trevorf
July 15th, 2004, 03:22
well the admin doesn't respond on msn ... messaged a few times now, either he just goes offline or just ignores me. I just ask, "whats the situation with fianetworks?" ... no response as yet.

Anyway, gladly I've decided to move server already the day before all this(saldy paid hosting).

khalil
July 15th, 2004, 08:12
i am starting to think fianetworks is gone

astigin
July 15th, 2004, 10:10
me too. sad... hope they will be online even for just a day... so i can backup. lol.

khalil
July 15th, 2004, 10:12
didnt back up your site???????????

astigin
July 15th, 2004, 10:28
hehehe. sadly i did not.i just put up a forum. although its very easy to install. but i have to make new topics agen. sigh...

khalil
July 15th, 2004, 10:31
where will you host your forums anow fianetworks is now gone

astigin
July 15th, 2004, 10:45
i am still looking for one. but im still waiting for fianetworks. lol.

khalil
July 15th, 2004, 10:48
i am hoping that fianeworks is still alive too but the signs dont look to good
does anyone know any other free web hosting service which offer as much as fianetworks does

trevorf
July 15th, 2004, 12:45
think it's long gone, I was told that it was hosted at a datacenter, anyway ... looked up again, and in actual fact it was only private residence ... so :P best to assume it's gone.

MyInternet
July 15th, 2004, 17:08
looked up again, and in actual fact it was only private residence ...

Maybe their ISP doesn't allow to run a webserver and as they noticed it
they blocked port 80 or closed the account.... :confused4

Enigma09
July 15th, 2004, 18:05
nah, heres the latest news i heard from fia

check the emergency board

"The server company is ignoring our emails right now and wont charge the credit card. I will be calling them over the phone today to kick some --- and it should be up shortly."

FlashWorkDesign
July 15th, 2004, 18:52
yay its goin back up
i need to switch my forums
to another sever

xindigo
July 15th, 2004, 19:30
There seems to be a lot of problems with FIA and credit cards. This was the reason that cPanel was down, too.

trevorf
July 15th, 2004, 20:02
Not sure whether it was actually a problem or not, they were just waiting for them to charge the account for the cpanel licence.


Fianetworks.com is back up now.

nickle
July 15th, 2004, 22:52
I'm not switching at all. I told everyone that it will be back soon and don't lose faith in FIANetwork. It is common sense to think that the owner will keeps their words, if they uses a speedy yet friendly support forum.

stanz
July 15th, 2004, 23:01
and they`re back, i didnt lose faith too.
also it was just a small problem.
no big deal, all should go better now.

xindigo
July 15th, 2004, 23:40
I didn't lose faith either... good job, guys! :-)

rajanurs
July 16th, 2004, 03:31
Yes they are back.........sht happens to everyone.....dont worry be happy with Fianetworks.

astigin
July 16th, 2004, 07:52
yehey! theyre back!

sriworld
July 23rd, 2004, 03:58
Its just a wonderful offer! And its great too.......... ! Iam going in..

But they are not taking signups..

Let me know when they allow signups... :)

MyInternet
July 23rd, 2004, 12:48
I would suggest to join or at least check the FiaNetworks forum
to be up-to-date with all news and information :-)

stanz
July 24th, 2004, 14:33
yeah, because off the license problems, they dont have WHM and when they dont have, they cant manage, signup, accounts..

stanz
July 28th, 2004, 20:39
CPanel is back, finally
pretty soon, signup will be active..
