    As much as I dislike your thread-bumping and blowing up numbers ping-pong and bot games I just noticed that - unlike quite a few others - you at least don't dish out bot-like automated "your [whatever] had been doubled" responses but seem to try giving each and every one a somewhat individual answer that is, you seem to really care about your customers.

    I like that (and felt that fairness required me to clearly say and commend that inmidst the shit-storm)

    Hmm airtel network here is more congested compared to tata(maybe because of large userbase) and looks like no ISP with sify upstream nearby only corporations......

    I just checked my neighbor's Wi-Fi providers ASN it has upstream of sify+airtel+jio, does this mean they are good ? [my neighbor is also a reseller I think as we bought the same company's dish few years ago from him :smile: ] I dunno what you all were talkin' bout I just jumped into the convo because it was intrestin'

    You can check and share the results comparing your and that neighbour.

    That can even be seen in the stats page: https://racknerd.projecthive.eu/ Dustin's similar post count is only 38... And I can assure you, only 22 of these were because of the double BW :)

    What time does Los Angeles restock?

    Eariler today he mentioned "soon". On the 14th I had also asked and he said ~2weeks. There should hopefully be some more stock coming in but you'll have to hope you can get a more specific date from him.

    For what its worth he mentioned they are going to get some restock in their current data center in the AON tower in LA. He also mentioned today theres a new colocrossing(?) data center coming online and they are planning on getting some presence in there as well but that sounded like a longer term project than just a few days. He did warn that the LA stuff always goes uber fast..

    I would also like to get my hands on a LA VPS in the near future. I was intrigued when Dustin mentioned that the LA VPSes are specifically optimised to handle Asian traffic.

    I think they meant China and other locations when they refer Asian traffic. My latency is 220ms from LA vps. EU location is still best for us. It's around 140 to 150ms.

    I get 150+ to hong kong , you would think since we enjoy very good routes to Singapore hk would be better than eu

    If it's properly routed, HK is sub-100ms to most parts of India.

    I see. sh did say that RN's LA VPS gave him the best pings among the US-based VPSes he owns. Wanting to move everything to RackNerd, if there's a requirement for Asian audience, I'd prolly host it on the RN LA DC, for now.
    Hope Dustin spins a SG server soon. I'd also be happy if he is able to pull of a Mumbai/Hyd server.

    Indeed - that's because Multacom has a presence in Any2West IX and has direct peering with Airtel. So the next hop would be from Airtel LA to Airtel Chennai, at the lowest possible latency - no transit congestion or anything.

    so it is probably my isp then , ( uses jio )

    Yes, I have noticed that Jio generally has poor international routing. They don't even have an open peering policy, and rely heavily on transit (from my observations, might be wrong)

    Oh ok. So, that makes sense. Might do me good to move to Airtel whenever they become available here. Jio doesn't seem to care at all about these direct peering deals.

    You don't need to move to airtel itself, almost 90% of ISPs in India are a downstream of Airtel, so as long as that's the case, you'll get this latency.

    I mean, currently, we have JioFiber in the area. My only shot at moving to a mainstream ISP is thus Jio. I haven't yet pulled the trigger cause I really would love access to GH and Stackoverflow. People on Reddit complain that Jiofiber has the habit of occassionally blocking these harmless sites. So, I haven't yet made the move. Been waiting for Airtel to come to my area.

    BTW, when you say, 90%, do you mean any other ISP other than Jio and BSNL is an Airtel derivative?

    Yup - have a look yourself
    I bet 90% of the broadband providers are all downstream of either TATA or Airtel
    In fact, I think BSNL also uses TATA quite a bit.

    EDIT: When I had my ASN, it had a better AS Cone Rank than my own ISP and many others at Rank #23 xD
    Hilarious, considering it was a hobby net IPv6 network.

    That's quite surprising, how many networks in India rely on Airtel. I didn't know about this.
