I doubt the provider has control over this. You should be looking for which datacenter allows UDP spoofing (or doesn't check).
Sounds like testing of udp packet flood ddos. I don't think LET is the place for this.
Mhm Indeed it doesn't seem legitimate for the purpose, Why would you need a data center that doesn't follow regulations and allows spoofing?
Ecatel.co.uk does not restrict spoofing but i´m pretty confident that you were already aware of that1.

Very few networks do any filtering along this vein, likely you can do this with just about any provider.
But seriously is this not something you can "test" on a virtual network or LAN?

Indeed that's what I want to do, but not to harm somebody but to adjust filtering for these attacks as they can be very painful for teamspeak servers. Also the amount of packets and the size would be very limited.
I know ecatel pretty much does everything, but they're not that cheap for just testing stuff.
I've done this on Rackspace before and they weren't bothered, so if they don't care I don't imagine many other hosts care either.
You could always ticket your provider and ask them if it's OK, some hosts don't put anything in the TOS about spoofing.
Thought about LAN?

Test yourself.
A lot of providers restrict spoofing and other "hacker" activities, but I have found that they don't mind as long as you own the source and target systems, are using them for basic hardness testing, and make sure there is no accidental collateral damage. Testing a DoS attack on your own VPS might affect other VPSs on the same node, for example, and would be a no-no.
Open a ticket to explain what you plan to do. It is a courtesy will help you avoid misunderstandings.
