VPS throttle SSH/SFTP speeds to 25kbps - RackNerd
Hi all,
I got two services with RackNerd (US) this year, and just wonder is it common for providers like RackNerd to throttle my speed down to 25kbps? After raising ticket, they only raised it up to 70Kbps.
Other issues namely are having them placed me on a server that was crawling and getting very low I/O. Tickets has to be raised to get them to shift me out of that server.
Is this common practice in the US? I am looking for somewhere that provides me based on what is advertised, otherwise, having 11TB of bandwidth a month doesn't matter if I am only throttled down to 25kbps.

Submit your order number here and they will double that to 140kbps.
Hi @explicit — thank you for being our valued customer and we are happy to work with you to resolve this issue. I was able to locate your ticket in our queue and believe there is a misunderstanding here. We do not throttle without notification and nor would we ever do it to a point where it would be in the Kbps range like you stated.
I see that you were able to achieve over 80.4 MB/s on a speedtest based on your response on the ticket today at 18:59:
This indicates around ~800Mbps of a network speed.
I believe the issue may be unrelated to network speed at our level, it could be an issue with routing between our network and the remote destination (where you are downloading from).
In either case, we will follow up with you via ticket, and request MTR's.
Hi.. you could perform YABS to get know roughly your VPS performance.
Put this command on your VPS
curl -sL yabs.sh | bash -s -- -
It sounds like the Chinese firewall
Sftp throughput is regularly shit for whatever reason. It's not fast and you usually need multiple concurrent transfers to get better throughput.
Also makes a big difference whether you're transferring lots of small files or few big files.

Looks much better now. I'll be testing the MTR tonight.
Where is network and geekbeck section?
