wow my vps goes down on the 2nd day... time to ask for a refund
I understand it's been posted earlier, but i'll chime in as well a little bit.
CPU is the same.
I/O is fairly average.
The real issue is the international network.

^ I've submitted a ticket regarding the above, they claimed to contact the DC, then said that they stopped abusers, and now that they're getting a solution 'in the next few days'
Cachefly gets ~1MB/s, but completely freezes my SSH connection, lol.
Support has been slow but friendly.
Heh, maybe this is the secret of "1TB transfer in Australia".
@jamson can you try with an Australian test file, to check if at least local b/w is fast?
For example http://ftp.au.debian.org/test.files/100meg.test
I wouldn't be surprised
Sure.

@rm_ Here are some test files from an AU CDN(they peer with a load of people, and @Serverbear use their parent company as a network test)

@jamson got ninja'd I wonder if the CDN links work better than the mirror links? Mirror is supposed to be hosted at HQ in Adelaide?
Sorry - forgot about Internode's CDN...

Seems to be a bit better.
Performance seems good. Haven't ran any official tests. Know compiles and installs ran a lot faster than on other VPS'es we use.
I stay off the international nodes so can't comment there. Did test one in Europe over weekend and was fine.
Bandwidth speed on US nodes is pretty good.
Wish more nodes were available (out of IPs on a bunch).
Wonder if Exigent does any better. Still at $4.50 not too bad I guess.
Use mine in UA for now. Node was way off time, but they fixed it fast. NTP wasn't installed, so...
Anyhow, chance to move same specs to AU is insane value, regardless if some eu locations are geolocated or not. Awesome deal this was.
Anyone interested in mine? I have the first plan.
In Aus?
Just as if London is next to Paris.
I chose France but it gave me an Germany ip address...
looks like the offer is over
Exigent's plans are capped at 10Mbit. Plus Australia's peering isn't the best anyway.
Work has some boxes co-lo'd in Global Switch, peering with Pipe.
That is impressive!
At the moment the VPS is in Ukraine, you can switch the location when you want
When/If you keen to get rid of, drop me a msg ^_^
Anyone know if the AU stock is available yet? Last time I checked the 'One Provider network' was unavailable. I'm a bit loathe to backup and kill my VM if I can't create a new VM.
Best send ticket and ask there
I have, but LEB is way faster than their support
