Brian from Big Brain Host sent me a link to their LEB special of Xen VPS. Use this link to order with promo code XENLEB (update: you don’t need to use the promo code any more as it should automatically show the correct amount), you can get the following VPS for $6.74 (after 25% off recurring discount).
- 256MB memory/256MB swap
- 20GB storage
- 500GB/month data transfer
- Xen/SolusVM
Servers are in Chicago IL with SingleHop. Test IP: 184.154.89.178. Quite a few people purchased VPS from Big Brain Host with their previous exclusive offer so maybe someone can chime in on how their found the services so far.

LEA (LowEndAdmin) is the original founder of LowEndBox and the visionary who gave rise to an entire movement around minimalist, efficient hosting. In 2008, LEA launched LowEndBox with a simple but powerful idea: that it was possible to run meaningful applications, web servers, VPNs, mail servers, and more – on small, low-cost virtual machines with minimal resources.
At a time when most infrastructure discussions were dominated by high-end servers and enterprise platforms, LEA championed the opposite approach: lightweight Linux distros, self-managed servers, open source software, and thoughtful optimization. This philosophy gave birth to the term “Low End Box”, which would come to define a new genre of hosting tailored to developers, tinkerers, and budget-conscious users around the world.
Through LowEndBox and its companion forum, LowEndTalk, LEA built the foundation for what would become one of the most active and enduring communities in the hosting world, prioritizing knowledge-sharing, transparency, and accessibility.
After several years of nurturing the site and community, LEA stepped away from active involvement, passing the torch to a new generation of admins, contributors, and moderators. Today, LEA remains a respected figure in the LowEnd ecosystem, credited with launching a platform and philosophy that continues to influence thousands of infrastructure providers and users globally.
LowEndBox’s legacy, and its thriving community, is a direct result of LEA’s original vision.
Hi,
1. Is the gig port running on this ?
2.What type of processor ?
3.Can it tun/tap be enabled ?
4.Can I run mirc/torrent via it ?
5.Is there any dedicated speed ?
1. Is the gig port running on this? – It depends on which node you are assigned.
2.What type of processor? Again, depending on which node you are assigned. Minimum is E5620.
3. Can it tun/tap be enabled? It is not available by default. Submit a ticket to the Help Desk or notify us during your order process and we will make sure it is activated.
4. Can I run mirc/torrent via it? Unfortunately, no mIRC or torrents are allowed on any nodes.
5. Is there any dedicated speed? Yes – 100Mbps is default on all Xen VPS machines.
I hope that answers all of your questions. If you have any others, send us an email general {AT} bigbrainhost.com.
so which node run on gige port?
no mIRC ? how about irc client bnc/egg :)
Sorry, bnc/egg are considered as part of IRC which are against our TOS. Regarding gige, specify during sign up and we will make sure you are taken care of. :)
Doesn’t
mknod /dev/net/tun c 10 200work on Xen? Unlike OpenVZ you need the provider to activate it?Sorry – mind was on OpenVZ.
Any refund if not satisfied with your service ?
Yes. We do offer a 7-day Money Back Guarantee, no questions asked. :)
Price is $8.99 on website…
Yep. This is a special ONLY for Lowendbox.com readers. Use XENLEB when signing up to get e reduced price for life, which is $6.74. :)
Yes. If you just follow the “order link” in the blog post it actually fills in the promo code for you automatically…
We have made easier now… Just clicking the link will take you to the order screen where it will reflect the price of $6.74 USD without having to use a promo code. Thanks LEB Admin
