East Cost VPS with ipv6?

dirkdirk Member
edited February 2012 in General

I'm looking for an East Coast VPS (128mb RAM) with native ipv6 support and at a max of $25/year.
Diskspace of 5gb is more then enough, bandwidth around 50gb is fine too.

Any ideas?

    Hostigation?

    No IPv6 at the new data center currently, so I'm going to bring up an HE tunnel to Miami and announce a /48 out from there. Caro is saying this year for IPv6 support, but I'm not holding my breath.

    Why Miami?

  • It looks like it's less hops to Ashburn than to Miami. In fact, it's routing you through Ashburn to get to Miami. But if I were you, I would go with NY because it looks like everything is being routed through NY.

  • @flam316 said: But if I were you, I would go with NY

    I just have to see where HE has BGP peers available, tunnels are easy to get at any of their locations, but to peer is another story.

  • Judging by their network map, NY is a major PoP for HE. I would be surprised if they didn't peer there. But of course, you would need to contact them to get this info.

  • Curiosity got the better of me, and Ashburn VA, Miami FL, and Freemont CA are the only locations HE offers BGP tunnels

  • Interesting. Hopefully Caro.net gets some real IPv6 in the DC soon, but until then, that doesn't seem like a horrible option. However, I think Ashburn would make more sense than Miami because of it's central-ish location.
