  • If you remove ipv4 then it will be around like 0.37 Euro month. By the way, isn't the network speed 100Mbps?

    They said 100 Mbit. Seems its unlimited incoming and 300 Mbit outgoing. Thats why i wanted to share. Its a really good offer IMHO, if you know how to deal with limited resources :)

  • I spun up and instance without ipv4 and yabs looks great.

    Its 100mbps on average if sustained over the entire month. You can burst quite happily, but don't expect that speed 24/7.

  • gianggiang Veteran

    You can also use IPv6 only for your instance.

    Then create a new VPC beta to get IPv4 and map it to the instance. VPC is at beta stage so IPv4 is free.

    So you will get 0.37 EURO / month VPS with IPv4 and IPv6...

  • How do I get this instance?
    I dont see it anywhere after logging into the console.
    Is there like a notification email that I can subscribe to?

    Thanks, that works.

    I knew they re-branded back to scaleway and when going to online.net you are on the 'scaleway' website... but scaleway dedibox, not scaleway elements. That is ultra stupid branding it seems - there is no way to jump to 'elements' from online.net redirect... or it's hidden somewhere deep, lol.

    Their billing system seems wrong, their support person seems didn't understand math :(

    Instance price is 0.37 Euro per month: https://i.imgur.com/qbH7y51.png

    I created 2 instances:

    • One from Aug 4th.
    • One from Aug 16th.

    And this month I got invoice with 0.9 Euro.
    (2 * 0.37 Euro if I use 2 instances for full month = 0.74 Euro)

    I asked support how can it possible, with a lot of calculations and headaches, I gave up.

    If you have premium services with them, you should check too.

    Maybe it is incremental billing applied there. You pay for the remaining days of the current month + 1 month after. After that, the billing goes normal in the next invoice.

    No, their invoice is very clearly about how many minutes I used for August.

    Did you stop and restart the instances? Or reboot via panel?

    Could you post your invoice screenshot?

    Yes, I did remove and recreate many times (But less than 15). Here are screenshots of what they charged:


    Here is my calculation:

    I used 2 instances with total:
    39.480 minutes
    22690 minutes
    Total: 62.160 minutes = 1036 hours.

    1036 hours mutiply with €0.00052 per hour = €0.53872

    €0.00052 is the total of:
    €0.0004/hour for the 10 GB of local storage
    €0.00012/hour for the instance
    (Detail from here: https://www.scaleway.com/en/faq/how-am-i-billed-for-scaleway-elements-services/)

  • Why has AMS1 23 resources? I also have two stardust instances for the whole month and it just says AMS1 1 resource, PAR1 1 resource on my invoice.

  • @rick2610 said:

    Yes, because I deleted and recreated 23 times maybe?

    Support said that I created 10 - 15 mins then deleted. So it will be charged 23 hours.

    Even with 23 hours more. Less than a full day. It will still less than: 2 * 0.37 Euro per month.

    My guess is that each time you do this, the accrued charge is being finalized and rounded up to 0.01 Euro.
    And with 23 restarts it becomes easier to see where the extra 0.23 or so come from.

  • With just ipv6, how can I access the vps over ipv4 only? My ISP (Verizon) is still thinking on dual stack implementation... and it may happen in the next century if not earlier.

    Any help is appreciated!

    @yoursunny wrote a decent guide here.

    Another option would be an IPv6 tunnelbroker, but it's a game of luck whether those work for residential connections. Esp. if your ISP uses some cheap, proprietary router or CGNAT, you're doomed.

    Download Cloudflare Warp https://1.1.1.1/ it will give you IPv6 connectivity.

    Then create a new VPC beta to get IPv4 and map it to the instance. VPC is at beta stage so IPv4 is free.

    So you will get 0.37 EURO / month VPS with IPv4 and IPv6...

    that's right, but remember to point port forwarding NAT

    You can take a look at their docs: https://www.scaleway.com/en/docs/network/vpc/how-to/create-a-public-gateway/

    It's beta so it's free for now.

  • basically

    Internet => Public Gateway => Private Network => VM

    1. assign vm to private network
    2. assign local ip to your vm based on MAC
    3. setup nat port forward to local ip
    4. boom.. free ipv4

    Yeah that's not good. Hetzner doesn't do that. Their pricing page shows all other instances cost at least 0.01, so they just used that.

    Then they should round up their hourly price to 0.01 instead 0.0005 :D

    Then, when the beta is over, we have to pay money or no ipv4 🙄
