Anyone using SolaDrive's residential VPS lately?
Hey guys,
Anyone here using SolaDrive's residential VPS? I'm looking at their Los Angeles option, which says “Wave or Windstream.”
Most reviews I found are pretty old. Has anyone tried it recently? How's the speed and stability?
Also, does anyone know if these actually run on home/business broadband, or if they're datacenter servers with ISP IPs? I'm interested in the actual connection, not just what IP lookup sites label it.
Would appreciate hearing from anyone who's used one lately. Thanks!

I have wave ISP IP at another place, had windstream too all of them get detected by any decent DB as VPN / DC even tho it's in a "Residential" ASN.
So are those actually datacenter-hosted ISP IPs rather than real home broadband connections? Or is it just how the databases classify them?
What is your use case? Most of these Residential VPS providers are fake. If you want a resi IP I'd recommend Webshare Proxy, I pay 8 bucks an year for 3x Shared Residential 250GB and you get true residential IPs. I think it is the same for dedicated residential IP but 1x only.
But if you have any other use case then fair.
They are most likely provisioned somewhere that isn't fully "enterprise" so they don't get fully flagged the same, but yes pretty much anything competent will know it's not real residential.
However, still great for basic browsing, streaming. (Just not so ideal for lot of other things)
Webshare proxy, leverage load of people that don't know they are a proxy. All these sites should be heavily investigated imo. nothing more than "legal" botnet.
