(MR) South Korea VMS with Direct China (CN2) Connection
Hi,
So I was pretty curious about this whether it would even sell or not, so the best people (experts) to ask about this is the LET community!
We are thinking to launch a new node in South Korea (in LG Datacenter) with Direct China (CN2). The traffic won't route to HK, Singapore or US. It goes directly to China (Beijing, Shanghai or Guangzhou).
Proposed package:
KVM, 1GB RAM, 1 vCore, 10GB SSD, 100GB Bandwidth, 1 IPv4 @$30/mo
btw the prices can't be lowered because @$30 it is just breakeven (including the license & PayPal transaction fees, we'd actually profit if someone pays via Bitcoin 
)
Would anyone be interested in such an offer ?

Such a service cudnt technically be offered on LET since it's about 8x the limit
.
Don't forget to mention the speed cap of 10M. The price is good if the quality is up to standard.
looks like Korea s bandwidth cost more than HK.
This is LET, $7 or GTFO.
i will buy it if the bandwidth is about 300G or more with over 10M port
If that is KT i would not bet it will stay like that - as long as the port is unused, yes, later no as Korea has not much traffic to/from China so there is not really any incentive to upgrade once full.
10M Port & yes the bandwidth can be made 300GB
Can't say about that. Its on KNIX.
It is.. what? If you mean the exchange - The Chinese are not peering there.
It is similar to the KNIX connection which the DC has.
5M unlimited, USD 50
5M Shared ?
Most of the ISPs sell 1M for $100
In HK maybe. KT certainly does not charge 100$/mbit in seoul for colo. Even their cloud product is cheaper than that.
OMG
We can sell you a lower bandwidth price haha，and include CN2,KT,GCX,HE,SK domestic,HKIX
You saying HK is more expensive than Korea?
For direct China as dedicated service - yes.
What you see on KT is the standard port (Nx40G) they negotiated with the Chinese which Koreans, by nature of their usage patterns, language and interests, do not max out - Once full i highly doubt this will be upgraded as CT wants to see real cash then and KT has barely any end-users interested in Chinese content.
hell no, this is low end talk, GTFO.
i don't care how do you get breakeven, try Aliyun HK, they sell 2TB @ $19/month, same CN2 route mate,
learn to burn your money, or to be burned by big companies like Aliyun.
Still out of low end range LOL
but it is really cheap considering HK cn2 is very expensive
Chill man. The OP was just posting to get some idea of the peoples feelings towards KR VPS with CN2 bw. Obviously people haven't really warmed to the idea, based on the feedback we can see, but no need to be hostile or aggressive.
Aliyun HK is not exactly that good and the price of $30 /month, if it really includes a fast/stable/reliable connection to China is actually kind of cheap. Is it realistic? Not sure. Is the package desirable? Doesn't look to be. Still, it's not outrageous, and still priced below average for a VPS in this region offering similar service.
How about the price, could you pm me?
I would be interested with 50Mbps/100GB Traffic at $30 or lower, if CN2 peering is proved to work.
