Is it normal to get 100-150mbps between North America and BuyVM Luxembourg?

As the title suggests, I recently got hands on a BuyVM Luxembourg machine, and ran some iperf tests for both multithreaded TCP and UDP, it seems that the best I get between NA and Lux is a little bit over 100 mbps.

Local speedtest does go over 1000mbps.

Is this expected?

I normally get 25MB/sec (~250Mbit/sec) single stream going from Vegas to LUX over HTTP/HTTPS.

Can I get a directadmin authorization code for free with any machine purchase?

Our DA licenses are locked to BuyVM & Namecrane IP's only.

Past that they're available on all plans. You probably won't be able to use it on the 1G plans though.

Thanks for the information. So I checked again using a San Jose VPS instead of my home internet on this end, and was able to get much better speed.

It seems that the routing from west coast residential network is the problem.

I can tweak outgoing (LUX->you), but I can't do much on the inbound (you->lux).

What do you get from mtr test to Lux?

That sound great, how can I do that, open a ticket?

Nothing special, it goes practically a straight line from west to east and through a east coastal city to Belgium.

Thanks for your explanation, I know how to do it

You can get more by tweaking TCP settings on both sides. Or using UDP. With standard settings and 100ms latency 250 Mbit are expected.
