How to find a cheap dedicated server in HongKong?
Allowed IP announce.
PCCWbtn (only) 100Mbps 5TB (outcome) or more.
I found that Zenlayer offer a dedicated server with settled bandwidth ($10 per Mbps PCCW), it is to waste for me.
How about Sunnyvision and hkcolocation?
Just need the pccw route.
Budget about $300 per month without IP range.

Hard.
I think so.
What are the hardware specs you are looking at?
You can check:
NewMedia Express, Softlayer, SunnyVision, HKColocation, Leaseweb*
* They have a premium China Direct service with transit via PCCW. This is an optional service and offered at a cost, contact them for further info.
You don't
Why PCCW?
NewMedia Express's outcome traffic is not good for China.
Softlayer don't have a direct route to China.
SunnyVision and HKColocation are cheap but I don't see anyone use.
LeaseWeb I purchased. Announce ip is very very difficult but I succeeded. The route to China Telecom outcome is going to SK Telecom. China Unicom must go Japan NTT. No direct for these carriers.
Because it is better than other carriers in HongKong for China traffic.
Don't.
The routing seems nice on surface but is unusable on some routes, and the ones you want (=CN) are not even remotely in any usable state.
Don't. Supporting spammers pretty much, also this funny thread:

And if you start to think about Pacswitch or one of their other companies (== same as HKColocation)....:
Don't. Just... don't.

I can give you PCCW but not for anything close to $10/mbit.
Cheap and Hong Kong do not like each other.
Have you tried Shatin China Telecom?
for me, Shatin seems to be the best connection to China Telecom.
And you mentioned SunnyVision, I have acquintance who is running vps selling business on that, which also has a direct peering (CN2) with China Telecom
You can find many providers in Chinese hosting forum to get direct China route but with several Mbps bandwidth.
Yea. At 5Mbit shared for the entire DC.
@Cocochan, what are your hardware requirements?
You need only outbound traffic or inbound too? And of course I mean MOSTLY. Meaning your inbound will be small?
