Looking for advice -- Need VPS

Looking for advice on selecting a VPS provider.

I need something with a 300+ Mbit port, preferably 5+ TB bandwidth, and 2+ GB RAM, located in North America.

What would everyone recommend?

  • Anywhere specific in North America?

    What's your budget?

    Let us know location and budget and someone will point you in the right direction.

    East Coast would be preferable but I will take anything in North America.

    Just looking for as cheap as possible, no more than $30/mo.

  • Basically all the providers who advertise on LET.

    East coast specifically I'd say:

    IPXCore, RamNode, BuyVM (when they actually get east-coast stock), I also believe GetKVM is now in New Jersey, etc.

    That 5TB is quite high though. Out of curiosity, what specifically are you going to do with that much bandwidth?

    Gigabit port is absolutely necessary (well, at least 300+ Mbit) and from what you listed it looks like RamNode is the only one that explicitly mentions having a gigabit port.

    As for what I'd be doing with the bandwidth -- streaming high bitrate content.

    Yep, you can get a 2GB VPS from us and add an extra TB of bandwidth for $4/mo and still be under budget. :)

  • Might go that route... looks good to me.

  • @charlie460: Well, you can't go wrong with @Nick_A :P

    @jcaleb The extra TB of bandwidth cost $4. Not the vps. ;)

    To be clear, the bandwidth is $4/mo ha... Not the 2GB RAM VPS itself.

    Anyway, thanks for steering him to us guys!

    My bad... I thought its too good to be true.

  • @Nick_A said: To be clear, the bandwidth is $4/mo ha... Not the 2GB RAM VPS itself.

    Now that'd be a steal... ;)

  • I hear @Nick_A likes to tease people with misinformation.

    Just kidding.
