I found this offer:
http://www.register.it/server/configurator.html?product=DS2DS431

I never tried a register.it dedi (I used it for some domain registrations, and nothing more)

I was wondering if someone tried their dedis

    Good deal indeed, but no idea what's the network/location for those servers.

    Italian provider, with its own datacenter in Reading (UK). I'm really curious about the network, too.

    They own space in other places like Spain too, but it could made sense that those servers were located in the UK.

    Sorry, no idea about the network, but at this price is certainly tempting.

    Ok, so I bit the bullet and got it. Just getting it set up now. The caveat is they don't provide hardware help either - so I'd be wary - and also it took three of them to tell me that I can put anything in the VAT # box since I don't live in the EU. Otherwise though, smooth, I got some upgrades and will likely put down a hypervisor and try out different containerization concepts, but before then I'll benchmark it alongside the SYS-E3-2 and a Hetzner box I got at a similar price. Stay tuned, I guess.

    All in all, including the exchange rate, it came out to be around $41, but the SYS is $48, the Hetzner cost me $45.

    Bad start for the Italians, apparently they leave work on time for reals, leaving my Ubuntu install hanging somehow... come on ho wdoes one leave that hang and not leave me with KVM access or any access. There's no support but in exchange I was supposed to be able to help myself.

    @loot Did you receive an IP address for your server yet? If yes, could you share it with the last part censored, for me to ping/determine where it is?

    Otherwise, tossing the ASN would be another way to check out their network latency/blend.

    I pinged it already but 94.76.201.xx and it's in as29550 (UK). 92ms from NYC where I am now, completely times out from every point in China atm.

    Am I allowed to nmap a server I already paid for from another server I already paid for? The IP is up, nothing in the conditions - English version, and doesn't mention which version controls, just jurisdiction - states that I can't scan it, just that I can't scan with it. And if you want someone to take a completely unmanaged server you'd expect them to have the basic tools to take a gander at what's up, right?

    Well it's happening anyway but I'm doing an -sS -Pn since a -A seems like a lost cause, but they're supposed to have plesk installed, not at the usual port. I have the login so we'll see if they did that or not, I suppose.

    At least it's not a holiday for them tomorrow... right?

  • Tomorrow they will be there to answer, I suppose

  • test ip????

  • lootloot Member

    my guess is anyone in the 94.76.201.0/18 range

    Good news! Some nice fellow named Andrea sent me not 1 but 3 emails (1 for each of the 2 additional IPs and one for everything finished), and I even got a follow up and yep, I'm in, and um, you can use your own domain of course. They just seem to take the idea of off time a little more seriously than I do.

    Well I think it's on 100mbits. Timing out to Australia is a bit annoying.
