Thank you for posting us. If you have any questions guys, please ask.
I have a question.. We need to run an L2TP VPN server for our business but in the past have had issues getting it to run on OpenVZ based VPS systems. With KVM we have no problems. Do you guys offer any KVM services? if not would we be able to run an L2TP VPN on your service?
We do offer KVM services, please open a ticket with required specifications and I will reply with a price.
All the test IP addresses are on at least one blacklist and they all say they’re registered to New Wave NetConnect aka ChicagoVPS. Did ChicagoVPS acquire FtpIt too?
We have not been acquired,we are using colocrossing in some of the locations
Off topic: How did you edit your post? I thought only blog admins could make the edit. I fell asleep last night with this open in a tab and noticed today you changed your comment stating you rent from ChicagoVPS to you use Colocrossing directly instead.
This was the original comment: http://i.imgur.com/xhB2U4w.png (I’ve got gravatar blocked, hence the white squares)
Weird. Just curious about that edit. :)
Unfortunately,my comments are going to moderation again and again :(
Actually Radi and I (Nipon) both posted comments in the same post,so I have asked the blog admin to remove one
It is no secret that we use colocrossing,incero and newave
Thanks

Highly recommended provider.
Thanks Dhavid :)
1. “2GB SSD” plan comes with vswap?
2. How much for additional ssd diskspace and ip?
1 Gb swap can be added by support ticket.1 usd per ip and additional 10 GB ssd disk at 1.99 usd per month
I have already one VPS with 1GB RAM, 1.2GB vSwap, 4 vCPU core with another provider. But it is HDD and I am thinking of going for a SSD VPS as well. Your 2GB RAM, 2 CPU core looks good option for me but not sure what would be the real difference between “2GB RAM – 2 CPU core (yours) v/s 1 GB RAM – 4 CPU core (mine)”??
Also not sure if there is any difference between CPU and vCPU and I guess in case of VPS it is all same, right?
thank you
CPU = vCPU
Difference between the plans you listed are specifications.
thank you, yes I understand that the difference is specifications, my question was more about the performance implication between SSD-2GB-2CPU and HDD-1GB-4CPU, any suggestion/opinion?
Depends of your applications. They need a lot of CPU? 4 cores are better (if they dont throttle and if they use the equal CPU on the host node). But if your applicaions benefit by RAM and IO this VPS ist better for you.
yes, that make sense..
As of now I don’t have any CPU intensive applications or custom applications which consumes lot of CPU power. I have the basic Nginx-PHP-MySQL-Apache setup and running couple of wordpress sites and one mybb forum. There is a lot of hype over SSDs lately and thought of trying one. I guess for my setup more RAM and SSD option would be good (Read/Write) than less RAM and more CPU option.
thank you
@shibin You are welcome to try our services and send us feed-backs at support@ftpit.com
Just a quick notice,only 2 stocks left for the 512MB SSD plan. Hurry !! :)
I missed it! But I need IPV6 – what is the estimate for that to be available?
We will have in dallas,kvm
Really cheap but support service very slow…
May I have your ticket id? Our average ticket reply is 2 hours
My ticket has been solved. Some problems need long time to solve but supporter must reply to me ASAP. I don’t want to wait if I don’t know what is happening.
You can check ticket no. #509650.
As explained earlier,Your iso link was slow even after the iso located in USA (maybe that is your other provider issue).It was downloading in KBPS.Then you send us through google drive,which I have manually downloaded to my pc and then upload to our server again.We have replied only after all work is done.
No more 512MB SSD…please add more
Currently servers of this full,we will restock later
What’s the policy going to be when the promo year is up for the 3GB plan? Is this going to be ongoing until we cancel (i.e. the same $35 every year until WE cancel), or will pricing go up at the end of the promo period?
Thanks
Price is recurring.It will remains the same every year
why your previous promo
2GB Promo is $45/Y (http://lowendbox.com/blog/ftpit-4-anniversary-offers-including-a-48year-3gb-openvz-in-buffalo-and-los-angeles/)
and now 3 GB $35/Y with only 1 core of CPU difference?
and 100GB HD difference
That was old offer. You have a better one, go get it :).
can I buy for it?
Thank you this is what I am looking for
what plan are you looking into?
I am actually using your service now
Thank you for this promo,
I’m going to get another 1 :)
That’s great!!
Do you provide rdns?
yes,we do provide by tickets.Please email support@ftpit.com
Hello FTPiT,
I purchased two subscriptions on offer, thanks much!
I am happy with the service thus far.
I, however, want to bring to light what appears to me to be a shocking oversight.
The mobile page for manage.ftpit.com doesn’t use https!! Surely it is should be a forced redirect to https? I am able to login through http and manage my stuff.
Also, forcing https in the address bar leads to a certificate warning.
Please fix at the earliest and disable the http page completely, I’d say.
I am using an android phone, version 4.4.2, and Chrome version 36.
Well, it doesn’t appear to be limited to the mobile page, the desktop one accepts http too.
Needs rectification.
Hello
We did change ssl yesterday.Seems that is causing the issue.Can you please email me at support@ftpit.com
Please try now http://manage.ftpit.com/login.php
Thanks for the redirect!
Works from both desktop and android phone.
However, android 4.4.2 gives me an SSL certificate not trusted error. It works fine from the desktop.
I checked the phone’s trusted system certificates and couldn’t find PositiveSSL/PositiveSSL CA 2 by Comodo CA Ltd in the list, though there are a few others by that Organization present. (And ofcourse, updating to Chrome 37 didn’t help)
I am guessing this CN can be entered into the list only after an android update, whenever that comes.
Do check to see if this is a universal issue on phones.
Tricky stuff!
Are you IPs blacklist free?
Yes, we have many
Can I bring my own windows server 2012 to install? I can give a link to my iso.
yes sure,we can do that in all of our kvm plans.Please send email to sales@ftpit.com to know the current promotions running in kvm plans
Hey,
I was thinking about choosing one of your plans. I will mostly use it for private VPN, Proxy, Voice Server and Torrents. The question is, do you have an automatic monitoring system for Torrents or not. I just got suspended on some other VPS that I was testing for a legal torrent seeding even if they did allow torrents like this in ToS.
yes,we have monitoring system in place as well.please email support@ftpit.com for more details
512MB SSD Out of Stock :(
does it support l2tp over ipsec?
HOW much CPU load allowed on 3G VPS?
Please email us at support@ftpit.com
Please respond here, what is max allowable 24/7 load per CPU?
I’m eager for the reply too..
Max 1min load
Max 5min load
Max 15min load
Max 1hr load
Max 2hr load
Max 4hr load
Max 8hr load
Max 24hr load
It depends on case by case and what are you running etc.Generally number of cores in the plans equals the maximum number of loads.If any plan for abuse,please move onto the other providers offers,we are very on abuse (no refunds) and try to make our nodes stable.Our TOS here
http://www.ftpit.com/terms-of-service/
Why the 1GB is not SSD?
We have ssd as well.Please email sales@ftpit.com
price same?
Space will change in ssd and only 5 usd extra.Please email sales@ftpit.com
Ordered the 3GB plan. Quick setup, stable connection, and both my support tickets were resolved in a timely manner.
Great value! Thanks!
You are welcome :)
Is it possible to have a higher capacity HDD in place of SSD in the 512MB plan ?
Do you have any location in mind ? We can do in LA with better hdd space with little price hike .Please email sales@ftpit.com with your requirements
is the 512MB stock gonna be back soon?
yes,hopefully in the next offer :)
I´m trying to order the 512Mb one but it says out of stock. Are u going to have it again soon ? I want it on Chicago or LA. thx.
It will be back in our next offer.Currently we are out of stock
What is /29 (5) IP Address. Can i add more domains on that hosting without Extra IP, or Extra IP is for something else.
Thank you for the answer.
Yes you can. 5 IPs are optional, if you need SSL for that domains, etc.
my 2 order always rejected inv 6540
huh…..
Please open a ticket.
Hey,
Considering jumping in on this offer but require running an IRC server, would you reconsider your blanket TOS ban in IRC servers if I explain my circumstances? It is a very small server for a gaming community (<30 people logged on).
Let me know in a reply if you'd be wiling to grant an exemption.
Could I install Nagios on this ( not much traffic, just monitoring another Nagios install..)
can i using this vps for :
1. transmission torrent program for personal using?
2. vpn program?
3. radio shoutcast server?
thx
Stay away stay very far away. Is the owner on here?
Agreed. Do not use this provider unless you only plan to use it for a very basic personal website. Oversold.
Is the offer with 3GB RAM a lifetime or only for the first year? Thanks!
The cost of renewal for the next year?
Occasional downtime, junk overall. Don’t buy.
Take days to reply my feedback. But still not solve the problem that last more than week. When I ask for my backup they send me the corrupt one. When I ask again they send me the old one again then disappear.
I have a lot of trouble from them. Now I can’t even have my backup to move my site some where else.
If ftpit guys read this please contact me
I need my site back yesterday but you guys haven’t reply me for last 2 days.
Have been with them for 2 months now. Almost 90% of the time unusable service – connection seems like it’s running on 2kb/s tops. Can’t recommend them at all.
