Locations & Test Information
As they have 8 locations, there are too many to list here. You can visit their network page for a map, test IPs, and further information here.
Thanks for the post Ishaq!
For any questions, Andrew and myself can be reached here or via sales@hostus.us :)
Alexander / HostUS
Is it possible to get a test run of the OpenVZ? Preferably Washington, but the location or config do not matter as long as the functionality is the same across all of them.
How about some non-storage KVM deals?
Hi Joe,
We have a 15% off coupon code VPS15OFF available for regular KVM plans.
Alexander / HostUS
Incoming traffic counted or free incoming traffic?
Hello,
We count traffic in both directions.
Alexander / HostUS
Well, that AUP not allowed list sure is long.
Why only one IPv6 address?
Hello,
Our terms and conditions are written to ensure that we can provide affordable service to our customers without compromising on quality.
We can add more IPv6 addresses as required, just submit a ticket.
Alexander / HostUS
storage got swap?
Hello,
Our KVM OS templates are preconfigured with 1GB of swap. You can create swapfiles if you would like more swap.
Alexander / HostUS
Hi Guys,
This offer looks like its arrived at just the right time! as I was just about to order a storage node from another providor, however I am still waiting on them to get back to me on answering a couple of quick questions. Sighs.
Anyway as this is KVM, I can adjust the inodes to suit its purpose so this would be better in the long run as it means the providor doesnt need to do anything special. The only possible issue I can see is its location as I live in the UK.
So, would you mind giving me a quick test file link so I can quickly test to see if Atlanta would be acceptiable. Latency isnt so much of a problem was it will just be for storage (tahoe-lafs node, mostly). Or if you have one located closer, that would be even better but I highly doubt you would but its worth asking :)
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Simon
Sorry guys, I feel stupid. I found your test links on your site (was listed at the very bottom of the posting).
Hi Simon,
Thanks for your interest. Storage KVM is currently being offered in Atlanta only, you can find test IPs and files from our network page: https://hostus.us/network.html
Alexander / HostUS
Thanks for the reply. Ive done some tests and speed is fine apart from ive noticed your test file keeps staling sometimes, not always (tested from about 5 different DC’s) but that could just be your server/config.
However just as I was about to order and I just noticed your prices do not match what you have in your posting.
On your website, most of the package prices are different then what you have posted here on LEB.
Example:
LEB Web shows: STORAGE 400G @ $48 per year, your website says $60
Most of the others don’t match either (at least the yearly doesn’t at least). Could you please look into it as it will dictate what I will order.
Thank you.
p.s. As usual would like to pay yearly, so if any of the other packages have discounts for yearly, please mention, thank you.
It’ll show the correct price after you press on continue.
http://prntscr.com/cw8pyg
Sorry for the noise again, I must be blind and having a bad day as as soon as I clicked next, the price was discounted to what the LEB website says.
Teaches me not to use my glasses :)
Hi Simon,
No problem, thanks for your business!
Alexander / HostUS
Hi,
DO you have a sample ip address for the ATL storage servers?
Hello,
We have test IPs for Atlanta listed on our network page.
Alexander / HostUS
An excellent offer! With superb uptime and support I couldn’t resist getting another box.
Hi Crab,
Thanks for your support!
Alexander / HostUS
Hey Alex, just wondering if the above deals will renew/be billed at the listed rates for the duration that the boxes are used (ie. the $18/qtr USA / UK Special 1 will always be billed at $18).
Hi Dan,
Yes, renewal pricing will be the same as your first bill.
Alexander / HostUS
Can I use the plan “USA / UK Special 2” for a personal VPN?
Hello,
Yes this is fine. Please note we do not allow public / open proxies.
Alexander / HostUS
if offer finished?
Hi Nisha,
The offers are still available.
Alexander / HostUS
On your “OpenVZ vs KVM” page, it lists Docker support as “Partial” on OpenVZ. What does that mean? I’m planning on running some Docker containers, would it be better to use KVM instead of OpenVZ?
Hi Daniel,
OpenVZ’s Docker support is very limited and we recommend running Docker on KVM only.
Alexander / HostUS
Love these guys! Great server! AWESOME AWESOME SUPPORT!
Hi Eric,
Many thanks for your support!
Alexander / HostUS
KVM means disk is not oversold right? space is dedicated?
Hello,
Yes, KVM resources are dedicated to you.
Alexander / HostUS
is port 25 ougoing still blocked?
Hello,
Port 25 is blocked in our Asia Pacific locations by the upstream.
Alexander / HostUS
Is BitTorrent/seedbox usage allowed (assuming no public tracker usage)?
Their AUP has a list of banned services, one of which says “Pirated Content / Warez / Illegal Downloads/Uploads”. I doubt that a host that doesn’t allow a Minecraft Server (something that can be handled by a $15 Raspberry Pi), would be cool with bittorrent. Then again, it says that customers are responsible for handling DMCA notes, so if you use a tunnel, it might be ok. Unless you ended up falling under “Pirated Content / Warez / Illegal Downloads/Uploads”.
Unless of course the apparently catch-all AUP is really just there as justification to ban anyone who causes a disruption and isn’t enforced as long as you’re not a headache. If it’s that last part, I’m in for a yearly sub.
Hello,
BitTorrent/seedbox is fine as long as you are not acessing any content that is violating our terms.
We consider multiple factors when deciding an AUP entry. Minecraft servers are not allowed due to its tendency of receiving DDoS attacks, though we make exceptions for small personal servers from time to time.
Please feel free to submit a sales ticket if you would like clarification with our terms and conditions.
Alexander / HostUS
That sounds really awesome. I might have to pick up a small server to replace the problems I’ve been having with my current provider. Do you allow tunneled network interfaces? I need to connect to a VPN for my school.
Hello,
This will work fine with all KVM-based services. OpenVZ has limited support for proper GRE tunneling, but will work fine with OpenVPN (TUN/TAP).
Alexander / HostUS
Do you have ssd space in LA?
Hello,
Are you asking about our OpenVZ or KVM range in Los Angeles?
Alexander / HostUS
I’ve been using HostUs for a couple months now. Its my first time using a VPS. In the past I always ran my own servers either at home or in a data center. I’m very happy with the service I am getting from the folks at Hostus.
I’m running a site I developed for my employer and am in the process of setting up a few personal domains for myself. Very happy with the service and at this point I plan on continuing to use them vs. going with a dedicated server (my stuff is low volume).
For what it is worth, I can recommend these guys.
Dale
Hi,
I was wondering what kind of network speeds I could expect if I went for the London offer – it mentioned a 1gbps uplink but I’d presume that that would be shared between multiple VMs?
Thanks
I don’t recommend this company. The servers were down for over a week and often go down due to high load (overselling) or due to apparent DDoS attacks as they says. Whatever the case, it’s not worth the effort.
Be aware …
Interesting… I was just about to put through an order :D. Was it any location in particular or just the whole site?
We are using your vps service now.
1.How to backup the server? from some other providers, i can use the snapshot feature to backup the server.
2. port 25 is blocked. , is the port 465,587 also blocked?
thanks.
I have their SG vps. They only block port 25 outgoing. You still can use incoming :25. I am using smtp relay service port 587 (postfix) to enable transactional email service from my woocommerce site.
And it works flawlessly.
Any chance the storage VPS offer will be restocked?
hey
wtf
I want buy vps via btc, and fckn bullsh1t maxmind not can check and accessing me on payment!!!
This (https://openvz.org/Docker_inside_CT) says that running docker containers is possible with new versions of OpenVZ.
Would your (HostUS) OpenVZ offers support running Docker containers?
best vps i’ve ever been use,better than vultr
why is it better than vultr?
