My other site, hosted on byethost:
www.monotremegames.info

Works ok for me, I had no ftp problems, the only real bad thing that annoys me is that smtp is disabled.

Yeah you just got to remember that people and places can't have everything perfect all the time, you may have just gotten unlucky.

Try contacting them and see the problem can't be resolved eh?

I don't like Byethost free hosting, for what I remember it was really slow, and I don't like the new control panel. (VistaPanel) Since then I started searching for free hosts with enough features for a long time, and found this place and now I'm hosted here! Astahost is way better than (free) Byethost.

This thread seems a little old. These days Byethost free host is getting better. But still with slow speed. That is one thing make me disappointed. And last month the uptime rate is not good, and they replied that because their free server was being attached by hacker. But later it seems ok and runs normal. Anyway, Astahost is better than (free) Byethost, just mentioned above like MediYama.

An old thread, yes. They seem to have solved their problems. But they lost my account. and they are currently down.

I'm not sure if you guys are still having issues with Byethost but I signed up to an account with them about 5 days ago and have yet to have any issues. FTP and everything has been working perfectly fine so far.

I don't use it extensively though, just for testing scripts and stuff before making them "live" on my real site (I already used all my SQL accounts so pretty much I'm just using Byethost for free SQL, lol)
