Frequently Asked Questions

pinoyIRC Routing FAQ

  • I keep getting the following error when I submit my application

    There are elements of your server information which do not conform to the “Information for Candidates” document or the “Technical Requirements” document. You must fully read all the relevant documentation and ensure that the criteria are specifically satisfied or this error will occur. 

  • How much bandwidth do I need to be considered?

    At the *very* minimum, 4 Mbps with diverse connectivity to multiple providers. Otherwise, minimum 10 Mbps. Note also that if this bandwidth is shared with a business or ISP for its own purposes, then we will only consider the application if the total usage of the available bandwidth does not exceed 20% of available capacity at the time of application. 

  • Do you accept applications from “rented shells”, “IRCD Shells”, or shell providers?

     In short, Yes. The pinoyIRC does accept servers from such entities as the servers provided are generally dedicated to the function, and often are sufficiently secured.
