    KVM RAM 512 - 1024 MB, HDD 10+ GB with reliable price will be more attractive :)

    We have 50% discount on other VPS packages. With coupon: 10years
    1GB vps becomes €5 but I believe there are only 10 uses remaining for that coupon and we can't extend it.

    Bad copy paste sorry this offer is only for our Kista data center in Stockholm.

    @datanoise said:
    Nice! tun/tap enabled?

    If the output is the following - TUN is enabled:

    cat: /dev/net/tun: File descriptor in bad state

    On vps:

    lsmod | grep tun
    tun 31740 2

    cat /dev/net/tun
    cat: /dev/net/tun: File descriptor in bad state

    I'd say yes.

  • Does LXC have burst RAM or swap or anything?

    Only disk swap.

    I tried this myself on centos, the swapfile is created but when checking with "free -h" it shows swap as 0, this seems for the best in the end. Nobody wants slow drives because some people use disk iops for continues swapping

    Apparently it is simply not possible with LXC: https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/centos-111/what's-the-correct-way-to-specify-a-swap-file-for-an-lxc-container-4175548079/

    Is it possible to launch a lxc image from my public lxc image server? That could save a lot of setup time for me to be able to use my preconfigured lxc images!

    If virtualizor allows this/has this option then yes.
    Else, we can upload your image and install from there.

    Yes, with KVM for €5 with the coupon listed above.

    Good news everyone, we've decided to increase the memory for this package to 512MB

    Why? Because we can! (actually because LXC uses far less memory than KVM vm's)
    Existing signups can open a ticket to get the increase.

    Perhaps a MOD can change the offer title to 512MB? and the text as well, awesome.

    Yes, even with 500GB, it's not attractive to the p2p clientele, that OP probably doesn't want on this plan.

    Traffic is expensive in Sweden, we don't use budget Cogent for transit but proper Telia and NTT transits which simply cost more. If our network was based on Cogent and the likes then we'd give more traffic. It is how it is

    If there are 10.000 people who want to have p2p vps with 100mbit flat for a couple of euro's we can get Cogent solely for this purpose :smile:

    Yeah I know you have a good network, and 100 GB is probably enough for most uses (small site + mail), but 200GB would be more comfortable as it's in+out, to be sure to stay within the limits. No problem though, I understand your point and IMO it's better to offer a good network with traffic limits than unlimited crap.

    Telia? I thought that you have Hurricane Electric and OBEnetwork; https://bgp.he.net/AS42237

    OBEnetwork only has NTT, and 50% > of their traffic goes over peering.

    OBEnetwork has NTT and Tele2 as upstreams + peering points at AMS-IX (NL), FIXO (NO), IXOR (SE), Netnod (DK, SE), NIX (NO), SOLIX (SE) and STHIX (SE, DK) and several private peerings.

  • Yes, and Tele2 = not Telia?

  • @packetnext said:

    • OP mentioning that they "have Telia and NTT" - no you do not

    You have OBEnetwork (which does not have telia) and HE.net

    Apart from that, it is great pricing for a VPS in Sweden

    Yes upstream tele2 and NTT
    I doubt they have 50% of all traffic going to peers, only possible for the largest players... and those players of course are transits who ask money.

    Just check the bgp.he.net

    It says on there, I am not talking out of my ass or speculating.

    As far as the Telia vs Tele2, was it a case of Amnesia?

    No it's not. Cuz of the 100GB data transfer.

    I do not believe they are running v4 transit over HE. It is likely an artifact of bgp.he where he runs a ton of route collectors. If they are doing v4 transit over HE I expect the v4 pie chart to look like a nearly 50-50 split (+ negligible other).

    From my networks I don't see any transit reach of their HE traffic other than that they're peered at STHIX/SOLIX with them.

    It would be nice if you would include the pricing for overage traffic in your offer, and on your website.

    The only thing I can find now is:

    What if I exceed my monthly traffic limit?
    Your VPS will be suspended until the start of the next month. It is possible to purchase more traffic during this period to unsuspend your vps.

    Also, can you indicate which ip transit uplinks you have? So, not the uplinks of your uplink, but yours.
