Looking for VPS directly on or singled-homed to Tier 1/Tier 2 networks
I’m looking for VPSes that are singled-homed to, or directly on Tier 1 and Tier 2 (large) networks. Examples of large Tier 2’s would be Datapacket/CDN77, GSL, RETN, Telin, SG.GS, Softbank, and so on. Tier 1 is self-explanatory.
My use-case is to build my own little global network of VPS probes for network analysis.
Specs required:
2GB RAM
1 vCPU
20GB+ SSD
500GB+ bandwidth
100Mbps+ port
1x IPv4 + IPv6 preferred
Location: Anywhere in the world
Budget: Anything reasonable
Please share of any providers that you know that will fit my requirements.
Thanks

@crunchbits in Liberty Lake, WA 🇺🇸 and Norristown, PA 🇺🇸 (NTT America), but out of stock (maybe @sh97 can slide an order for u )
There's sure a few more here, so good luck, and if you need a bit more choices let me know (preferably with a specific location in mind)
I have servers in Amsterdam directly on GSL's network. If pricing doesn't work send me a message with your requirements. Stock is pretty limited though.
