Can you PM with your IP to check the reason why your VPS is offline?

already online but the speed is still horrible. I don't expect too much from $1.xx vps hosting with unmetered speed. You get what you pay.

Speed depends on the location. Can you post a screenshot?

Guys you're so mean.

Can you perform a speedtest now? We fixed the speed problem.

tl;dr Speeds were amazing for the price and location...But seems it was too good to be true. I'd guess the node is throttled now, since speed limits seem consistent and precise.

Due to some technical issues we had to replace some of your IPs:
We are sorry for the inconvenience.

As a result:
188.241.xx.xx -----> 88.46.xx.xx

rDNS is set as well.

Senior Admin, 
Hostmaze

On August 1, I got this email ^. Ever since, network speeds are under 400KB/s (even Hostmaze's own looking glass). Before, SFTP and wget exceeded 5 MB/s. Aria2c even snatched a Linux ISO torrent in the 20 MB/s range.

I opened a ticket, provided MTR and other info. Admin said it was fixed. (It isn't.) I've since reconfigured networking (in SolusVM) and even reinstalled the OS. No improvement.

Net speeds are clearly no longer Gigabit as advertised. Unless my node just broken or saturated.

Update: I guess it all started in late July, actually. Here are the SolusVM charts:
