Lowendboxes in Russia, Africa and South America ?

Hello,

I do not find any VPS in Russia (as east as possible), Africa (except Egypt) and South America in lowendbox.com, even with deep search.
Can someone help me to find low prices boxes in these countries ?

Thanks

Mykeul

    You won't find any lebs in the east. Nqhost for Russia with english support, http://firstvds.ru with russian support - Moscow and Spb.

  • Hi,

    For Russia => http://www.lowendbox.com/blog/nqhost-6-95-128mb-unmetered-xen-vps-in-russia/

    For South America(It's actually Costa Rica, so Central America) => http://www.lowendbox.com/blog/abdicar-6-80-256mb-openvz-vps-in-costa-rica/

    I don't know any african provider beside citynethost in Egypt.

  • Most if not all of africas bandwidth goes through europe.

    I can't get an answer out of them about if their traffic destined for South America actually gets routed to South America, or if it's routed to the US through their "complex VPN" then to South America.

    I posted in that LEB posting, emailed them, contacted them through their "Contact Us" link. No response. So I would not say they're viable for South America.

  • Hello,

    Thank you for your answers, they are pretty much what I already found, so I am not totally stupid :)
    Is there a website like LEB for a little more expensive boxes ? (not WHT please)

    Thanks

  • For more expensive boxes try http://nohostsland.com/ Currently down
    Examples
    http://www.virtualservers.co.za/local-vps-servers South Africa
    https://dattatec.com/site/sp/internacional/hosting-servidores-virtuales-vps Argentina
    Well above the LEB price limit

    Yep, and it isn't a lot compared to other continents. I would be actually afraid to store any of my information in Africa with the recent events.

    Your best hope is Russia.

  • You won't really get a LEB in Africa, because bandwidth is so expensive in Africa.

    That is why the cheapest option in that South African VPS that Keith linked to only has 5gb bandwidth.

    Why lol, North Africa isn't the whole of Africa.

    Okay, ill exclude South Africa

  • Cape Verde is pretty westernised but you would probably have to use a satelite dish for internet. Same for Bechuanaland, Dahomey and Northern Rhodesia. However internet is pretty non existent.

    I personally wouldn't touch Egypt, I know a few big companies have used a datacentre in Tunis before.

    Egypt aint too bad its just some company (That i shal not name here) has bad routing and must be overselling bandwidth.

    @Daniel said: Okay, ill exclude South Africa

    What about Nigeria LOL? XD In Zambia all the routing goes through the UK for some reason.

  • Egypt's country is controlled by the military. Also most of the egyptians I have known were weird and I couldn't imagine any of them being able to log into a computer let alone operate a datacentre

    So you judge a whole nation based on some people? (I'm not egyptian, just sayin')

    Nope. Just that theirs no decent egyptian provider of vps.

    Most American people are wierd.. That's such a generalization.

  • I agree with you infinity. I meant Egyptians in the hosting buisness. I meant 'server' not 'computer'. When I was younger my doctor was from alexandria.

    Now they're from India :P

  • Actually my current doctor(s) are from nigeria (nhs) and switzerland (private).

    Thanked by 1Christian
  • Oh and I had an operation last year from a canadian doctor (nhs) seen as your quite interested.

  • I think the people at CityNetHost in Egypt did a pretty good job, i used to run a minecraft server on their 512/1024mb server for 15$/6months. Ofc it was down during the Egyptian uprising/revolution but apart form that, it ran pretty stable (but had a very slow network)
