I'd assume the connection is burstable to 100 Mbps... with the data-transfer capped at 2 TB.

Sounds funny, helluva deal minus the setup fee.

I did a reverse DNS on hostik.com Heres is the result (from dnsstuff.com):

hostik.com is not an IP address, so I am using 208.187.165.50 (the A record for hostik.com).

Location: United States [City: Sacramento, California]

Preparation:
The reverse DNS entry for an IP is found by reversing the IP, adding it to "in-addr.arpa", and looking up the PTR record.
So, the reverse DNS entry for 208.187.165.50 is found by looking up the PTR record for
50.165.187.208.in-addr.arpa.
All DNS requests start by asking the root servers, and they let us know what to do next.
See How Reverse DNS Lookups Work for more information.

How I am searching:
Asking a.root-servers.net for 50.165.187.208.in-addr.arpa PTR record:
a.root-servers.net says to go to basil.arin.net. (zone: 208.in-addr.arpa.)
Asking basil.arin.net. for 50.165.187.208.in-addr.arpa PTR record:
basil.arin.net [192.55.83.32] says to go to NS.ELI.NET. (zone: 187.208.in-addr.arpa.)
Asking NS.ELI.NET. for 50.165.187.208.in-addr.arpa PTR record:
ns.eli.net [209.63.0.2] says to go to dialin.lanset.com. (zone: 165.187.208.in-addr.arpa.)
Asking dialin.lanset.com. for 50.165.187.208.in-addr.arpa PTR record: Reports www.hostik.com. [from 208.187.165.2]


Either they have a very unfortunate way of naming servers or ...
