  • why not contact ur provider. whats the worst that could happen.

  • Yes contact ur provider this is very bad. Kappa

    What's exactly slow about those speed tests? Why would you even need more than that?

  • That speed isn't bad at all. I wouldn't bother contacting your host. Nothing wrong with those speeds.

    Is it? Seems kind of average to me on a few of my boxes...

    Pretty sure that was a sarcastic response to what seems like a joke thread.

  • not bad at all.. I/O speed is good too. No need to worry. :)

    I wouldn't complain about those speeds, more than enough for most peoples needs.

  • io speed is good.. but download speed is worse than LEB vps speed
    thanks

    Which one is slow and why do you say so?

  • Nothing is wrong with those speeds.....

  • Why do you need so fast speed? Even Kimsufi dedi just has 100 Mbps

    It blows me away that anyone could consider these results 'slow'.

    What I consider slow is a hugely overloaded box that hinders my ability to do stuff. If I have to wait 30 seconds to run a command, or if my downloads start stuttering because disk i/o can't keep up.. then I have a problem.

    Seems pretty average for me. Fit for for the location, but atlanta on par with singapore is not right.

    @nocker

    Compared to what? Another VPS in the same location, same port speed?

    It looks absolutely fine to me, as Mao says Atlanta and Singapore on a par is a bit odd but that could just be a glitch, run it again.

  • @Maounique I get random numbers from that test all the time. Colo@ seems to have super shitty routes. I've seen 30MB/s from that test in Europe, and <10MB/s in Dallas. Tons of factors at play, but that one seems to be consistently shit.

  • MaouniqueMaounique Host Rep, Veteran

    Yeah, NL test sites are consistent, and not only for EU areas, while most US ones are fluctuating. Overall, I see the network in EU more stable and less convoluted than the one in US, but might be a biased view.

  • I think that's fair to say. I see whacky routes on some US boxes, definitely more consistency in EU.

    You tell us, we don't know what your application requires.

  • There is nothing wrong with the speeds you have posted. Though not sure why people measure download speeds anyway, they can often vary to actual upload speeds.
