Wrong or right? Bandwidth fraud, Russian provider towwwer.host, your opinion?
A new provider from Russia offers a package of 50 rubles. According to the page description, its bandwidth is 1Gbps!
Fraud by Russian provider towwwer.host
But when you buy, you will find that its bandwidth is only 10Mbps. This is not due to network congestion, but the provider has set the maximum speed to 1220kib/sec
Another point, in all purchases of this package, not all have this limit set, some of them do not have this limit
In response, the merchant replied that it is obvious to set the minimum speed for the minimum package
Regarding this statement, when posting this post, in order to find any instructions on their website
However, according to this isp system, it is obvious that this is not the lowest speed but the highest speed
What do you think of this behavior?
In order to attract buyers to label large bandwidth, the provider actually limits the bandwidth to 1%. Is it correct? Or is it wrong?

In addition, for the test VPS provided by this provider, they are 1Gbps

Seriously? do you get at least something for this money?) and thanks for that!
You expect 1Gbps unmetered for $0.60/m?

They do not limit the test VPS provided to the website
This is intentional behavior
Money not important, 50 rubles can only take the metro once in St. petersburg
upset about this type of fraud,I am curious about what the provider will do next
post articles, for this kind of intentional behavior, I am happy to do SEO for them
In my opinion, the provider can mark 1Gbps and distribute it to 100000+ users
But it cannot indicate 1Gbps but secretly limits 10Mbps
I can't find that offer. The cheapest I find is 145 rubles/mo. As for a test server their FAQ clearly states that they do not offer .test servers.
Re the 10 Gb/s and unlimited traffic, that's a marketing trick I've seen often, e.g. on blade based nodes where the whole system (with e.g. 14 blades) has a 10 Gb/s connection but they create the impression that every VPS is 10 Gb/s connected. That's sad and ugly but at least in quite a few countries not criminal.
Plus, @hzr nailed it well.
Maybe they meant the node speed is 1Gb/s, because unmetered bandwidth with that speed for 0.7$ that's not possible.
50 RUR is 0.56 EUR. For 512 MB RAM... The hell with that Gbps port. I'll take it with 10Mbps! Thank you.
IMO, whatever the pricing is (even if it's free), they should clarify that they are limiting to 10Mbps, especially since they wrote 1Gbps on the product page
In this regard, my understanding is that this node is connected to 1Gbps of bandwidth. As for how much VPS is allocated for this 1Gbps bandwidth, this is not the point. I have explained that it can even be allocated to 100000+vps, but it is in the system Limit the speed to 10Mbps, which is contrary to 1Gbps, they should indicate 10Mbps
Update on the incident
In order to prevent more people from discovering that they secretly limit bandwidth
This provider has hidden the bandwidth limit information on the panel
I don't get why people on LET say, its only 50 cents, what did you expect. If a company advertises something, and they don't provide what they advertise, that is a problem. It doesn't matter what the price is. Lying is lying.
10Mpbs, isnt this the speed of oracle free tier?
Oracle giving 2 compute vm for free @10Mbps, why spend a dime for this?
Are you a dumb or acting like one on purpose? OP is saying the provider is engaging in false advertising, not fucking about the price or asks for your opinion on it.
Yes, i don't understand
Let us suppose
Let us suppose a very beautiful woman, at night, she dressed very beautifully, on the way home, he was raped by a bad guy
Should we blame this woman for being too beautiful?
For those who say "50 rubles, what to expect", I hope they can assume this woman as their own mother, and then think about this question
The fuck???
Did you just compare a 50 cent VPS to a woman being raped?
You need to calm your titties.
Indeed, the comparison with rape is way off.
However, opening post is correct, not because of 50 rubles VPS, but because it's fake advertising, intended misinformation, and lies. Such dishonest provider can never be trusted.
And now this is conspiracy to defraud. Let's dig deeper.
Let's make some _ASS_umptions:
I might be to dramatic, paranoid or plain and simple stupid, who knows, but I would better host my ISO's with cociu than this, thought price point is mouth watering.
Maybe this assumption is incorrect, I just want to remind some people that we should solve the most fundamental problem
The provider will provide the marked 1Gbps bandwidth to 100000 VPS
Or Provides a trademark that 1Gbps bandwidth is secretly limited to 10Mbps
These are two different things. For the previous situation, I can accept it, I think it’s just unknown
For the latter case, this is fraud
Our problem is that this provider practices fraud
Instead of "50 rubles, what do you expect"
You have a way to much time, get a better hobby.
better hobby is read LET like this
50Mbps for Oracle, but funny you should mention that, since the Oracle limit is "0.48 Gbps". I haven't bothered to contact Oracle to ask wtf, I already think they're incompetent.
latest progress
This provider has escaped
he's up again. Little hint: at the bottom page is a switch language button :-)
We are not in 80s anymore. In 2020, people do whatever they can get money from fools.
You simply cannot trust what "a company" says nowadays.
I usually dislike when a host here says "we" when it's just himself.
The latest information, this provider may belong to intersect.host
Yeah really don't like people saying that cheap = misinformation good in this thread. There are advertising practices that should be followed.
