IPv6 are free, and if we want to have IPv6, we have to ask it by sending email.
doesn't look very strong at all
Not that fancy hardware but still pretty nice deal considering the price.
So they let a open door for price increases!
How is IPv6 running with these servers? I've just ordered one but after IPv6 was set up my server went apeshit
Not quite as good here.

Update: Seems like this was an error with their Debian template. Their support has been amazing fast in fixing it
aria2c results using linode
More than enough bandwidth IMHO.
I don't know why everybody want steady 100 mbps or even gbit connections when you don't need it.
@yomero, some people do.
Yes, SOME. Most people doesn't. And if you pull that insane amounts of traffic, surely you can afford in a better infraestructure.
Well it's always nice to be able to burst to gigabit when doing an apt-get upgrade (or yum upgrade).
Also i was planning on using this for VPNing but with 100mbit i can't max out my internet connection
Anyway its still a great offer for the price. I just wonder if the 100mbit limitation is artificial or due to old switches/routers.
@yomero has a point
remember people this is download speed you're seeing
1mbps dl should be enough for 99.99% of the people here
dl speed will be typically much more than up speed for servers due to symetric lines and the nature of server applications.
In the meanwhile most countries have < 10mbps connections
Yeah i know that, less then a year ago i only had a 1mbps connection which i had so share with 4 people. I guess in this particular case it really depends on what you intend to do with the server. 100 mbit will be fine for running a website, but you'll need 1gbit e.g. for streaming
even if you're streaming, what you need is upload speed
unless you're trying to create dropbox no2
most users will want to download from your server, not vice versa

Thats what i've tried to point out:
Sorry i ment "much more", not "much less". Its corrected now.
