Cheap Frankfurt/German or Amsterdam VPS on Level3?

iceTwyiceTwy Member
edited July 2016 in Requests

Hey,

I'm looking for a VPS in Frankfurt - preferably, but other locations in Germany would be okay too - or Amsterdam from a provider peered with Level3.

I'd mostly use it as a VPN to watch Twitch, so I need a decent amount of BW but I don't care much about the rest, as long as TUN/TAP is enabled. Looking for a 2-3€/mo offer.

Thanks.

EDIT: No DigitalOcean please.

    Noting that it doesn't quite match what you asked for, thought I'd put this here, just in case you want to try them out.

    Thanks for the reply. I can see that I'm routed through Cogent when tracerouting to their LG, and unfortunately that route is heavily satured on evenings when watching Twitch so I'm trying to avoid it.

    @AutoSnipe Thank you for the mention.

    What exactly did you check? If a route is congested, we'd happy to change routing to improve our network quality.

    Just a quick traceroute from my home in Paris, FR to your LG in Düsseldorf. My ISP (Orange AKA France Telecom) routes traffic to AMS and Germany through Cogent I believe, as shown below. The issue is that this route is super congested in the evenings because it's a major one, so I'm trying to go for Level3 because Twitch has a Level3 peering.

    Hi,

    we have KVM Rootservers with Level3 Connectivity through AS33891 (Core-Backbone) in Frankfurt.

    You could use our Looking Glass to test the outbound routing towards your IP: http://lg.combahton.net/

    Looks pretty spot on. Are they reliable? Not that I expect much for 1€/mo, but I'd still not get scammed haha.

    Well, that's just what I'm looking for - minus the price tag, unfortunately. I'm not willing to spend more than a couple of bucks per month for a VPS I use one evening per week or so. Thanks for the offer though!

  • UltraVPSUltraVPS Member, Patron Provider

    Unfortunately, we can't change the routing for incoming traffic. Outgoing traffic should be routed via Level 3 for our DE location, so you shouldn't suffer from a possible congestion between Cogent and France Telecom.

  • VereloxVerelox Member

    We have direct peering with Level 3 as well (AS3356 and AS3549), but this is located in Rotterdam, not Amsterdam. I will be happy to do you a custom plan with 10 GB HDD, 1 core, 512 MB RAM and 500 GB bandwidth for €2.5/mo if the network meets your needs. You can use the looking glass here.

    Oops, this was bullshit

  • bersybersy Member

    Level3 is one of ZXHost's peers http://bandwidth.zxhost.co.uk/ 23Media. They used to offer yearly 1GB KVM servers within your budget, @AshleyUk might still have some of them in stock.

    AutoSnipe said: https://www.ultravps.eu/en/plans/ (XEN)

    It's KVM for now.

  • CloudxtnyHostCloudxtnyHost Member, Host Rep

    We can offer a node in Nurmbeg with Hetzner.

    KVM 512mb
    1core
    1tb traffic
    10gb hdd

    €2.99/m ping me if interested
