Looking for truly unmetered 1Gbps (no throttling) server recommendations
Hi,
I'm looking for a truly unmetered server with 1Gbps full speed and no throttling / no fair-usage limit.
Budget can be flexible, but I prefer something reasonably priced.
Use case is high-bandwidth passthrough streaming (no transcoding).
Any reliable providers you can recommend?
Thanks.

What location?
Singapore or Hongkong would be ideal, but the US or Europe is also fine.
Check OVH, Reliablesite (US only), and Datapacket.
Do you have any recommended OVH resellers?
And would it be possible to cover our needs with Hetzner or LeaseWeb instead?
For OVH, there's andy10gbit but he does business all on discord. Hetzner will ban you if you use 1 Gbps 24/7.
For Leaseweb there's hostingby.design and Hostdzire, the latter is running a comment promotion for unmetered in US, CA, and NL: https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/210258/ssd-nvme-big-storage-servers-from-eff-12-month-don-t-miss-out/p1

Thank you for the helpful information.
I contacted Hostdzire earlier, and it seems their service is limited to around 300Mbit/s.

Thanks for the offer.
Can you please confirm if the 1Gbps unlimited bandwidth is truly unmetered with no hidden limits, no fair-usage throttling, and no speed cap?
I mentioned that the limit is at 1.5Gbps for Tiran-3!
I didn't know hosts were still fair using 1Gbit unmetered. It seems like the standard now.
Interested in Indonesia? Close to Singapore
We can do 1g 10g 40g 100g unmetered in NY or Seattle.
It's right in our name - https://1gservers.com
There are still providers that give less than 1 Gbps unmetered (looking at you, OVH and Scaleway). As prices for 10 Gbps unmetered continue to fall, I think we'll start to see 1 Gbps unmetered with no FUP become the standard unless they want to lose to the competition.
Out of curiosity what is the lowest pricing you've seen for 10Gbit unmetered and guaranteed (no FUP) and from what providers?
Intel Xeon E3-1270v3
32GB DDR3 ECC Memory
2 x 512GB SATA SSD
1 Gbps 95/5 on 10 Gbps Port
Located in Kansas City, MO
$50/month

You will need to maintain 1 Gbps 95% or optionally we can just cap it to 1 Gbps without the burstable port. You can use 1 Gbps 24x7.
@hostwind yes its not capped by anything.
Or lenient FUP. Nobody on the planet can guarantee no congestion, even up to the edge of their own network. All networks rely on a reasonable mix of traffic flow and will break if everyone is sending their max rate to the same peer. FUP exists to prevent such scenarios.
