Hello
May I install a Windows on the KVM 1GB RAM? And 2008 R2 ?
It is possible however you would need to use your own valid Windows Key, or we are an official Microsoft SPLA and can rent a license. Please contact us for a price quote as Windows would be custom at this time.
Please note that the test IP is 155.94.239.5 and not 155.94.239.3.
The correct test file is http://155.94.239.5/50MB.test
lowendbox has updated this in the listing. Thank you :)
Are the IPs direct route to China?
Our Datacenter in LA has many Asia-Optimized carriers. You can try using 204.152.218.25 as an Asia-Optimized IP.
So the Asia-Optimized IP is under the same pricing?
Let us know what the results are for 155.94.239.5, our test IP.
have any refund guarantee？
Per our Terms of Service, our refund guarantee is ten days. You can review our Terms of Service at https://hostbrew.com/tos/

Hello

Debian 7 no minimal?
@JS, Speed looks good. We will get Debian 7 added for you tomorrow :)
tos link not opening
LowendBox has an extra “%20target=” in the link.
The link is https://hostbrew.com/tos/ and is also on the bottom of every HostBrew page.
@vijay it looks like it is not working because the listing has “%20target=” included within the link. The correct link is https://hostbrew.com/tos/
CPU cores are??
KVM = Intel Xeon E5-2670
OpenVZ in LA = Intel Xeon E5-2620v2, Buffalo = Intel Xeon E3-1270v3
Can Asian optimized IP
All IPs are optimized for Asia :) try the test IP. I hear it works great :)
Windows Trial images have been added for 512mb ram and higher plans.

Does the email is blocked?
I Do not use the email or one if you want.
I want to send not only 1 mail and I can =
I want to send 1 email and it may not.
Sorry my English I’m using translator.
We do not block TLS or the older SSL. We do have a standard block on port 25 to prevent compromised systems from spamming. An exception can be made under the right conditions.
What if I want to use this as my mailserver?
TLS is a best practice for a mail server. If there is a justified use case for port 25 we can open it.
What are the renew prices for these packages?
The price remains the same for as long as you keep the VPS.
Very Good Service I love Server.
Happy to hear :)
Deal is over? KVM 512mb $45 now annually.
Terii, I replied to your ticket. On the next page you can apply the coupon LALAUNCH code to get this deal still :)
Just an update here regarding sub-par connectivity to Asia.
The datacenter had an outage with ChinaTelecom at the end of last week and over the weekend. This as been resolved at this time.
Do you offer backups or snapshots?
Only by request at this time.
Some questions :)
Do you block the following ports on server: 80, 443, 25 and 22 for incoming traffic?
Do you block outgoing connections, eg VPS trying to send non-spam mail out?
Is the IP address (or the IP block) blacklisted by any public blacklists?
Is the disk I/O less than 80MB/s ?
Do you allow files larger than 1MB on the VPS ?
Now that we have our KVM product back in stock, some answers :)
Do you block the following ports on server: 80, 443, 25 and 22 for incoming traffic?
We do block port 25 outbound. An exception can be made.
Do you block outgoing connections, eg VPS trying to send non-spam mail out?
The only block is on port 25 outbound. TLS and SSL are both open.
Is the IP address (or the IP block) blacklisted by any public blacklists?
IP’s should be clean however there are a lot of lists out there. We can always clean up the IPs when needed.
Is the disk I/O less than 80MB/s ?
Yes. Much.
Do you allow files larger than 1MB on the VPS ?
Of course.
Out of stock?
We have added another node and are back in stock :)
:( appears out of stock now.. damn
We have added another node and are back in stock :)
Can I use 512MB ram to install Windows server 2012 ?
Indeed you can.
KVM is back in stock in our LA1 cluster.
We are going to leave this promotion active for another 2 weeks, 8/16/2016 will be the last day to enjoy our LA Launch special :)
Just a fair warning to anyone who is planning to use Hostbrew. When you register for a service and pay using PayPal, they activate a recurring payment schedule in PayPal. And if you disable the service they don’t warn you in anyway that you have a recurring payment still active or you should disable the recurring payment. I realized that the payment was still going one month later after I cancelled the service. I contacted the customer service to get my money back. Martin told me they wont return the money. They only way to utilize that money was to use their service. Which I didn’t want. So I requested to cancel the account and get the balance back. Again Martin refused to return the balance.
I have never experienced this kind of thing in any host service. I don’t have any complain about the performance of the service. Just know that you’ll never get your balances refunded.
Durning checkout you have the option to setup recurring payment or a one-time payment.
Yes I’ve had a similar experience. I set up the recurring payment but it didn’t work for some reason. I went a few days past due, and Martin raised the rate on my VPS $3 per month. I opened a ticket and Martin claimed that the LEB discount rates were only “promotional”, and any late payment causes that to expire?
WTF, that is pretty sheisty.
Mona, sorry you had a bad experience. I do hope it only came to billing and not the quality of the service itself.
All of our special so far have been recurring so far as long as the service remain active. We send out an invoice a week before payment is due and then a reminder the day before the payment is due. If a payment is not made on time and the service is suspended for non-payment, the service is considered no longer active, and the promotion is removed.
Under “Billing” of our Terms of Service (TOS) you will find the following:
“If a promotion is used, it is only valid for the terms of the promotion. If a promotion is recurring, service must remain active for the promotion to continue. If payment if not made by the due date the rate will return to the current web price at that time.”
I’m sorry you feel that this policy is “sheisty” but we disagree. Our rates are already low, and the discount on our already low rates would be yours for as long as payments are made on time.

Martin Wright

I buy much VPS from diffrent provider. but this is worst one. I use one company website base on wordpress. one day. I am not get any warning. but close my account. reason is violating our Terms of Service.but i not get any detailed,can not login can not do anything.
It okay. but when I try ask them resume,they offer 50 usd. this is really bilker. they not offer detaild not any warning then offer high cost.before I very believe lowendbox.com.but for now. I have to think over their advice server.
I think have more good choose.
Shi,
Thanks for your review. We at HostBrew do not allow spamming or phishing. In this case, it was a LinkedIn phishing that we were able to very and terminated your account because of phishing violates our acceptable use policy. Within our terms, we do have a $50 abuse mitigation fee.
