This is a direct quote from dacentec. "You can request a block of ipv6 from support once you have your server, there is no charge for ipv6."
Depending on what server you got you could have gotten a free /29.
Thought you get a block /29 for free if you provide justification.
@joelgm I gave
RIPEARIN justification and they swapped my /30 out for a new /29.It's not immediately obvious from the initial order form. Even I had assumed 4 addresses would be usable in /30.
What is a good justification for ARIN ? They don't accept VPS hosting has justification. I would need the /29 for this kind of stuff and I have no other reason... Is there an other way ?
Nice speeds @sin . I'm not seeing speeds anywhere like that. My best speed as of right now was about 20 MB/s . I think i've seen it hit 30MB/s bu tnothing near 90-100MB/s
Yes, now from China Telecom to you is Level 3.
Only seeing 1.7MB/s to Australia, on 23.92.x.x
Avg Ping from Sydney, Aus is 400ms
Syd to LA is ~180ms,
Will do a traceroute this afternoon and see what path its taking
I was about to ask you for this! Thank you!
Seems to be MUCH better from sydney equinix DC
from China Unicom , seems switched to Telia today, the GTT has bad ping performance in the last 7 days
The addition of Level 3 is good for China Mobile. In the past, it is CM-L3-GTT. Now goes L3 directly.
In my memory... I remember that CU's connection quality to L3 is not good, may get higher latency than GTT.
Great offer @dacentec, I could not be happier.
@FredQc - Is a 3107.7 unixbench about right for a dual L5420?
The single x3440 seems to do a little better??
Yes.
Edit. I have done the same test without the crappy HDDs copy test and got 4756.3 Dual L5520 gave me 9468.2 :P
Maybe you should add to the wiki that the kvm wont recognize a password like â÷ï1Àëæ[¤lú¡ÔäjÇúûa\é=»<Èð*m¾Êç÷. I realized this too late.
Serverbear benchmark for the Dual L5420 with CentOS 7 RAID1: http://serverbear.com/benchmark/2015/05/27/whEPNr9yXQ12FCbH
Serverbear benchmark for the Opteron 1385 with CentOS 6 single disk: http://serverbear.com/benchmark/2015/05/27/XnHTkKpMgiJWP8GV
I know they aren't 100% comparable due to the RAID difference but still gives a general picture. Too bad that X3440 doesn't come with 16GB of RAM.
Edit: Same Dual L5420 with CentOS 7 but RAID0: http://serverbear.com/benchmark/2015/05/27/93GWMUtWxH8qglu9
I think it's better to use common characters as password in any case...
The site is down. Can't reply my ticket though.
LowEndDDoS™
Dacentec webpage has been up again for the last couple of hours. But it certainly is something they can have a look at (@dacentec): a way of communicating in these cases to their customers (Facebook, twitter, ...) ?
They probably don't want to let the attacker(s) know the details of what they're doing if you get what I mean.
Pretty sure the status page will disappear when they do get one, considering it only affects their website and not the clients.
@Dacentec
Can you look at the speed issues to Australia? Look at the network benchmarks to Sydney, 54k/s!
Maybe its taking a bad route or peering wrong?
we can look at the routes to AU.
We are working on a better long term for the website, that will probably require the DDoS filtering we are scrambling to get online.
no better way to test it than posting offers here.
I think MammothVPS should be taken out of the speed test, even within AU I rarely get more than 2MB/s to them and it's painfully slow from everywhere outside of AU. I've asked the guy at ServerBear to remove MammothVPS from the test script.
I don't think that's the issue here. @bohdans and I tested it a bit to different locations with different providers and there is some performance issue moving data to many Aussie networks from Dacentec right now.
Seems better than it was 2 days ago,

@dacentec, Logged ticket #587661 with the above info.
Any ideas when more stock of the cheaper servers is here?
