Will you do Basic Plan $6/Month with 10GB SSD?
9 vps now , may be one more
Yes, we can offer that. Submit a support ticket or hop onto our live help.
300 TB/month? ) what is the actual bandwith can be used?
We do not expressible limit the bandwidth consumed by services, however actual usage is limited by other services running on the same node.
I thought Australian company would offer vps in Australia ?
Quite strange for me.
We offer our services based in the US due to its central location, and a large proportion of internet infrastructure is located there. As well, any service located in Australia has a much higher latency to the rest of the world than the US does.
In response to inquiries about TOR nodes, we do allow TOR relay nodes (not exit), as long as they abide within our TOS.
have a speedtest or download link to test speeds?
ip to test?
Please be aware those guys are selling "unlimited" 500 gigabytes:
@Nyr
Our unmetered vps services are not limited in bandwidth by us. However, they are limited by our port speed, and other services on the node. 500 GB was given as a 'normal' amount.
We will be setting those up shortly.
I understand, that's different then.
If you got unmetered gigabit that's 657 terabytes per month.
Then, would be ok for a customer to use 20 terabytes per month? (10 TB up/10 TB down, constant bandwidth, no spikes)
I think it's arround 300 Tb per month
@Inglar I assume they got a full duplex connection
so, what is the port limit? unmetered 100mbps/month?
Ah ok, then I really shocked )
Who is handling the filtering?
Sounds dodgy to me.
What's this DDOS protection? will you null route me if I had a 10gig attack? (edit) I didn't see anything in the TOS about null route or DDOS attacks, so it'll be safe to say I could have a 50gig/s attack and not be suspended.
Anybody bought? Reviews?
@Nyr that usage would be perfectly acceptable, assuming it was not copyrighted materials.
Can you go into detail about your DDoS protection? How large of an attack can you withstand and so on.
We employ DDoS protection in two stages. First, all traffic into our servers passes through a Cisco® Guard XT 5650 DDos Mitigation appliance (Level 1 Protection). As well, on our individual servers, we have configured extensive firewall rules to filter out higher-level attacks, such as http, syn, and icmp floods. Services may be null-routed if it is flooded with over 10gbps for a sustained amount of time (3 hours.
you have any test ip for ddos attack?
DDoS without express permission is illegal. We do not solicit DDoS attacks, neither do we allow our customers to.
Bought my VPS today and I must say that it is great! The support was very helpful and very polite. They gave me some days for free because my VPS wasn't set up immediately and because I've reported an error. Network speed is also quite good.
The I/O speed is about 280MB/s, which is more than enough for me. I can only recommend them.
Thank you very much @typh0n for reviewing us here!
We now have test files: 10 MB Test and 100 MB Test
Prices have been updated to $3/Month for our basic plan, and $5 for our 'personal' plan.
We have posted a new thread with updated prices and information here.
