VPS in PrivateLayer [Switzerland]
Hey guys and girls
I am after a low-end VPS hosted in PrivateLayer (CH)
- Ram: 512mb
- HDD: 25GB (doesn't need to be SSD)
- Port Speed: 100mbit (or more)
- 2.5 Traffic/month
- 1 x IPv4 address
- IPv6 address/es (a must)
- Would prefer proper vitalization, but would also settle for LXC/OpenVZ container
Budget: ~20USD per month
Would really appreciate if someone could point me into the right direction for a provider that could support those specs.

IIRC PV CH has no IPv6 at all.
Hmm, Well seems they have AAAA record on their main site, thus I assume they can provide IPv6 to their end clients.
Last i checked (2014) they did not provide IPv6 allocations to dedicated/colo - Only for their own infra.
Sadly, their VPS Brand, CHVPS is dead.
Weird, well their tweet back in 2011 says otherwsie:
Not sure if they remove IPv6 since though. Well fingers cross someone might be able to point in right direction.
Just curious, if you want to tell: why do you need this ISP specifically when there are far better options within your budget?
I have IPv6 there for more than a 2 years.
@Lunarvps, @Legionbox, RegVPS
We can offer that for you on OpenVZ at $13 with 400GB traffic. For 2500GB the price would be $30. We also have KVM for an extra $10.
We connect to a service that is hosted in that DC and is latency sensitive.
I know @Lunarvps doesnt do IPv6 in CH, but Ill contact RegVPS/legionbox as they claim to support IPv6 and fits well in my budget.
Thanks for the offer, if I cant find anything cheaper better I will have to settle with you guys (assuming you do in fact have IPv6 support to your VPS serves)
@adamBB, in that case you could try looking for someone else who is hosting at the same datacenter as privatelayer is (Equinix or Interxion I believe). Metanet.ch is very good (and it's a "real" Swiss company unlike most others), but their VPS solutions start at ~ $40.
They don't own the DC, just rent space with Equinix. There are many other providers in the building, some with direct connections to Private Layer and sub-ms latency.
Edit: I didn't see the reply from @zeitgeist, sorry. Within your budget you have for example EDIS, which uses nine.ch, a much better ISP.
BlueVM had a node with them if you contact them they might arrange something. Was very cheap (like 25$ per year) - had been able to get a plan on one of their node there asking. Wasn't perfect but ok for the price. Us company, known to be crappy. If you prefer a swiss company maybe another provider would be better
Some other people have nodes there though.
Thanks for the clarification @Nyr and @zeitgeist. I did not realise this information to start with.
Regardless I ended up going with Legionbox (as they do have IPv6 on their VPS) but if I have issues ill look into edis next time for sure.
Thanks everyone else with your help much appreciated!
