Cheap NAT Vps for torrenting
iHostART recently straight up shut down my vps and provided me with a partial refund without data recovery, very disappointing as I quite enjoyed their service, hence I'm seeking refuge. Looking for the following:
A lot/unlimited BW (few TB atleast)
ram/cpu don't matter, same as storage
shared ipv4 or just ipv6, doesn't matter
DMCA Ignored (will be primarly used to torrent serving as a seedbox)
speed: ideally 1gbps atleast, would settle for lower though
location: preferably in europe, nothing specific just anywhere
don't have a price set in mind, but ideally it would be under $10/yr, if not that's fine too

why not use PulsedMedia ?
specialization for torrenting 🤠
bit too overkill both requirements and price-wise
Get an server from OneProvider and install swizzin or quickbox on it.
To be honest unmetered bandwidth (or even a few TB) at $10/y is pretty much pushing it. Not exactly because it doesn't exist but because your setup is likely to actually likely to push your allowance or even some unspecified huge amount if unmetered. There will need to be a ALOT of idlers to set this off.
Basically you'll be a pure liability for the host. Add being a complaint magnet on top of that and factor it against the mere pennies (if any) the host is making on this. Hate to say it but you very much won't be an overly valued customer in such a constellation.
In general i don't think i've seen any of the popular NAT VPS advertise torrent friendlyness. You might do some guesswork based on where their hardware is located but i doubt any of those will openly support you. Just not worth it at that price.
I understand where you're coming from, but in a dmca ignored country there's no issue with the complaints, also it might seem like I'm using so much bandwith or something but in the last 3 months I've torrented maybe 50gb together, thanks for the two cents anyways
Well, there is. While there might actually be countries were abuse notices in regards to copyright infringement are totally meaningless (that's what DMCA notices are after all - hint: they usually very likely aren't - at least in theory) suppliers/upstreams might care and get angry. You can try hosting with someone that rents servers at Hetzner for example (germany has pretty much the same relation to DMCA as romania - none) but that won't work for long. It has actually not that much to do with legalities.
50gb is not very much actually though.
iHostArt has (no aff)
6 TB Bandwidth/month
1 Gbps speed
For $9.07 / month. See product specs (aff)
I went to BuyVM Luxembourg.
$3.50/month is a steep price, but I can squeeze in other services on the same server.
Bottleneck is the tiny 20GB storage.
Between BuyVM and two unsold Tokyo servers, my VPS spending is skyrocketing this quarter.
Nice thing is I don't have a wife so that nobody would question me.
You'd have my sympathy for those late night arguments over all those $3's
Hetzner cloud ARM based servers are good option
The copyright trolls are targeting IPv4 at the moment, so you are trying to pull the wool over their eyes with IPv6?
NAT VPS providers dislike torrenting for fear of IP contamination and freezing.
If you bat with VDS 6, you are out on three strikes.

Hey @davide do you even read posts before spamming aff links, again?
Hetzner does not allow public tracker
For $10/yr you’re pretty much out of options. Your best option is to switch to private torrents and use any normal NAT vps.
the first words of the first post are "iHostART recently straight up shut down my vps"
edit: somebody already said this but I'm leaving this post here

Just NAT , VPS KVM SSD never shutdown and we possible ignore dmca , porn , public torrent , tor etc..
Just a example recently we make upgrade at this SSD VPS KVM to xeon gold
Seeking an alternative to a terminated NAT VPS does not imply the exclusion of all other iHostArt offers. I acknowledge there is an implied suggestion of such, but it's not posed as a necessary requirement.
Of course and
ideally it would be under $10/yr, if not that's fine too
does not imply the exclusion of 10$ per month offer, 12 times more clearly is inthat's fine too
.Congrats, you passed your logical reasoning test today. Now shut up or I'll spam another aff link.
I'm not sure if the Netherlands providers suit you. But if yes, you can ask @MrRetslav for an offer. They sold some NATVps this BF and looks good.
That's interesting. They are in NL but is it a sure thing that they ignore DMCA requests? I couldn't spot the statement on their website.
Edit: actually I found a statement to the contrary: https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/3687578/#Comment_3687578
This provider is quite new to me and maybe ToS won't be completed yet. I've just tagged and maybe he will come and respond soon
As long you do not break any Dutch laws (and our TOS) we don't have a problem.
it's not strictly $10/yr, I'm flexible on it, however much it needs to be, I'll pay for it
