Looking forward to work with you. Should you wish, I can provide you with a 24 hours trial in order to check the network (KVM Server).

People did report problems with M247 in the past (network capping, mostly cogent bandwidth..) is this over?

The bandwidth is fine - they have a mix of Cogent / Telia / NTT in RO.

If you are looking for a good quality, super stable Romanian host I suggest newhost.ro and this isn't after using it for only a month either. I have been with them for about 4 5 years now, had maybe 2 outages in that time period (very very short and RFO provided) and 1 announced maintenance period. Support is quick to reply, if you do actully end up needing them (I think I have logged a handful of tickets maybe in the whole time I have been with them).

Their lowest tier offerings provide 100Mbit, but you get true 100Mbit not some half ass over utilized port:

CPU model : Common processor

Number of cores : 1

CPU frequency : 566.686 MHz

Total amount of ram : 256 MB

Total amount of swap : 0 MB

System uptime : 425 days, 21:47,

Do note that I have had this server for many many years so my resources are quite low as I bought it many years ago as a LET box when they offered it. Their lowest plan now even includes about double the resources. I have never needed any more than I have currently, so I haven't bugged them about it.

My experiences with M247 did not yield half as good of a network and to most places outside EU (international) it was piss slow. This was directly with M247 too, not a re-seller.

my 2 cents.

Cheers!

Nice, thanks. Upload is good too? (iperf)

Was it a long time ago? Same bandwidth mix as what they provide as of now?

Thanks!

it's just voxility mitigation? lol

Again is not Voxility mitigation see : https://dedicatserver.ro/webhosting.php#firewall

Romanian comercials Data Center with DDOS protection:

1. Voxility - own mitigation system ( not automatic so lost time until mitigate, to expensive)
2. GTS - Arbor DDOS - one on the best ,not goot for small atacks ( under 1Gbps )
3. M247 - NsFocus - second best DDOS protection , but the scrubing is in UK and lost time
4. xservers - own mitigation system + HP TippingPoint firewall ( we have help to build and equipped them )
5. dedicatserver.ro - we have the servers colocated in voxility , own DDOS protection + Fortinet 3040 - see picture.

To understand :

1.there is no DDOS protection to protect one server/IP 100%
2.the 500Gbps+ protection is a myth ( you should interpreted only as - the DC have Network Edge Capacity ) see the atacks on yahoo,spamhaus,facebook...
3.most of the hosting companies do "Black hole" / "null route" when the amplitude exceeds same limits , like 5Gbps or 500.000 pps for protect the network.

Last year we have tested four very expensive DDOS protection ( prices over 100k) , none of them have met our requirements ( to protect our whole network , with different stages of protection for dedicated servers and VDS ) ,we learned a lot about DDOS and the weaknesses of each solution.
