looking for linode's alternative
I have been using linode for 5+ years, the 20usd plan never changed.
But these days from CN to linode the connection gets more and more worse.
I have moved the node from JP to US, then back to JP, changed IP many times, but the result still keep bad.
I know this is not an issue with linode. but can you tell me an alternative to linode? it should have good (at least not bad) connection to CN. 2G memory/2vCORE, 20USD per month can be acceptable. thanks.

DigitalOcean & Vultr , they both give out free credit so try it out.
your best bet is south korea, or hong kong. most JP place are saturated because many other CN user doing similar activities.
If connection to China is all that is important for you, perhaps you should host in a datacenter inside China?
no that S**T license.
TTL is not that important, but package lost should be low.
now linode's host gets 25+% package lost most time.
Have you tried Pacifi-Crack (http://www.pacificrack.com/) or QuadraSpam (http://www.quadranet.com/) yet? They are in the USA but always claim to have great connection to Asia...
Try HostUS on HK location
@dediserve I got their AU vps when they offered 60% lifetime and it rocks!
What did Linode say when you told them that?
What do you mean by QuadraSpam? lol...

No. 4 in the TOP 100. Not bad... Closely followed by ColoCrossing. Who would have thought that? Shocking! It seems as if those two love to host spammers of any kind, doesn't it?
Would you cut the stupid b/s, and either stop recommending them altogether if you got a problem with them, or stop the retarded kindergarden name mangling nonsense. Two-three-four posts already, turning this thread into your whinefest of "wah wah wah they spammed me".
Have a drink, @rm_. You suck when you are sober! ;-)
