Looking for a VPS in UAE with direct India Peering
I am looking for a VPS in UAE. Direct India peering is a must and ping time to Mumbai/Bangalore should be less than 100ms.
I need decent ping times and MTR to African countries (expecting less than 150ms ping time to most African countries) as well.
Preferred VPS specifications
1 vCPU (3GHz/64 bit)
2GB RAM DDR4 or better
20GB NVMe or SSD
Virtualization: KVM
OS: Debian 12 or 13
500Mbps or more port with 2TB minimum monthly B/W
1 IPv4 address
Full root SSH access
Payment methods: Skrill/Volet.com/USDT or USDC/Paypal
Budget $12/first year ($24/yr renewal) or $2/month
Please provide the test IP/Looking Glass link and coupon code if applicable
Thanks

Thanks for the info. Looks like you got a Dubai VPS with SurferCloud.
What about the ping times to India, Kuala Lumpur, Johannesburg, Cairo and Lagos?
I couldn't find a test IP or Looking Glass link in their website.
Ping to Mumbai was close to 40ms, SG was around 75ms.
Don't know about the rest, and I don't have the VM anymore.
You can check Zenlayers Looking Glass, as they were using them in Dubai

Hi,
In case you are still looking, Melbicom can offer a VPS in Fujairah, which peers at UAE-IX.
The price is going to be above your budget though, at €5.7 monthly for the specs:
CPU 1 core
RAM 2GB
Storage 20GB
Bandwidth up to 1 Gbps
Monthly quota 2TB
It can be paid with PayPal.
You can take a look and test the speed here: https://www.melbicom.net/virtualserver/?utm_id=2025_BSTForum100
