VPS needed with memorable IP
Hi LET
first post so please be gentle!
Im looking for a VPS server with a very specific need - I want the provider to allocate me a memorable IP like a memorable phone number, for instance xx.yy.xxx.yyy where x and y would be a particular number, so like 22.11.222.111 but it can be any number as long as it is easy to remember
what VPS service providers offer this kind of facility? if you can choose your own IP rather than just being allocated one from the pool that would be really good too.
other things (RAM, bandwidth, location) are secondary to the requirement for a memorable IP.
thank you!

Considering the fact that the IPv4 shortage is very real, I don't think you will find it easy to get one of these addresses.
Of course, if you want to use ipv6, you can get a ipv6 block, and do all sorts of stuff on it, such as:
etc, etc
Of course, you could use 127.0.0.1 which is quite memorable...
DNS is another option as well.
sorry, IPv4 only but thank you (:
You sure you didnt post before ?

You're aware of DNS, yes?
not me but thanks for the link, i'll look thru the suggestions (:
I ended up finding what I needed for that (my purpose for it was to create a DNS resolver (restricted to the ranges I operate from) which I am using for various projects). I got a decently memorable IP, no where near as memorable as the original though (allocated by sheer luck to me by BuyVM). Best of luck in your search.

You should use this one: 8.8.8.8. I know they try to sell it :P
Seriously, any IP is easy to remember if you take the time to repeat it a few time.
xxx.yyy.zzz.zzz (199.255.zzz.zzz)
If you don't mind about your vps speed, CloudatCost is another choice, they don't offer your nice IP number, but they allow you to delete and re-create your VM, and everytime you recreate, you will have another IP, keep trying when you got nice IP
They allow 4 IPs per VM for ONE price lifetime.
Remember, their VPS performance is just so terrible!!!
If you want a really memorable IP, go with @Tacservers, mine is x.xx.xx.xx.
Service and support have been excellent, I have colocation there
Command to get a fast, memorable IP.
ip route add 8.8.8.8/32 via 127.0.0.1Not uncommon, happened again a few days ago.
Just get an OVH server, add many prefixes, 255 allowed free?
Good chance you'll end up with repeating last two octets.
Vultr/DO/anything hourly? Keep deploying until you get one you like.
We may be able to do this for you. I sent you a private message with some specific IP addresses.
We do have an IP address available that's XY.XYZ.XY.XYZ or XY.XY.ABC.AAC
short hostnames beat any ip-s
