I didn't use their service and can't find much info about them except them are RIPE NCC member, them just released these offers less than 24 hours tho, them are working with VDS right now, live chat is very responsive.

Bought one of the larger plans (2 CPU, 4GB RAM, 64GB NVMe, 2 TB BW @ 8.40 EUR and a few extra IP's). Damn couldn't resist. Invoice is still showing as unpaid tho.

Edit: invoice paid. Sent them a ticket and got a reply really fast. Also asked for permission to run a few benchmarks for you guyzzz.

Pretty impressive provider. Definitely going to keep the VPS for a long time for a Plesk server or cPanel if Plesk doesnt please me.
Provisioning is manual so be patient guys. Didnt get mine yet.

is smtp blocked? I figure they have a ton of returned ip ranges from the recent deadpools.

Might require a ticket. This company has a stellar record on keeping their IPs clean. Which is something I absolutely agree with. Mail ports should be blocked by default.

vimalware

Yeah, I'd block mail with os firewall too just in case.

Great deal for rent-a-nvme.
I was looking for something like this before I committed to hetzner dedi in September sale.

Lies, the 12 euro VPS has neither. Maybe you're actually from their marketing department?

I bought their 2 CPU, 4GB RAM, 64GB NVMe, 2TB BW. Wish it was 100GB. El Cheapo will always be El Cheapo. 9.40 EUR with 5 extra IPs.

General advice for new orders:

• No Windows accepted;

• SMTP ports are probably blocked and may require a ticket;

• Manual setup, kb mentions it may take up to 72 hours to validate your account and setup the VM;

• They may require you to validate your account by SMS;

• If you pay using Cryptocurrencies they may ask you to scan your ID / Utility ISP invoice;

• No refunds at all;

• They are not much interested in the LET crowd, so use their ticket system for any inquiries;

• This is a no bullshit provider. If you plan on running shady stuff, then dont. You will be terminated instantly.

Looks like OP has edited to reflect your observation.

I've never done business with prager-it (before anyone accuses me of shilling). I've just heard the name a lot in every ipv4 thread.

That's all.

Ouch. Calm down. You can easily check that in the order form. Small mistake.

I am not affiliated with or endorsed by Prager-IT, just sharing a deal I found. Quite a few threads in Offers section are using slightly misleading topic too.

Its that type of provider that I am pretty sure will stay in the business for a very long time with professionalism and superb, stable services. Lets see how the VM performs once its setup.

Snappy as hell. Impressive, very, very impressive. Grabbed their 4GB RAM one.

Also, asked to add netboot.xyz, and they done so. For those who don't know what is is, https://netboot.xyz <- yes, you're gonna love it.

Test file is at hetzner but their plans mention Core-Backbone.

Which is yours in?

Wonder what module they are using for Proxmox.

I got access to Proxmox, just very limited, enough for all my needs tho. There isn't integration with WHMCS apparently.

All routes to the test ip go through core-backbone network. try an mtr/traceroute

I could pull the test file at 16MB/sec from a leaseweb Singapore vps and was pleasantly surprised.

Interesting, it sounds like they have:

Colo at hetzner
Network only via Core-Backbone
Own IPs at hetzner

I wonder why they've done that rather than Colo with core-backbone - they are excellent facilities, network and company overall.

Hetzner offers core backbone as upstream maybe they exclusively use that

.20eur/mo per IP and NVMEEEEEEE

great deal.
