The old offer of 6 GB of ram provided more IPv4 addresses. A shame this has changed, it had a very good value that old offer.
I snagged the $18 quarterly deal in LA. This VM is a beast! I’m very happy with the low-latency and good bandwidth. I got excited seeing they support IPSec on OvZ, but after trying it out I can confirm that it does not work on their latest Debian or Ubuntu images. Support was responsive and told me they would notify their developer to take a look.
Thanks for your feedback!

“Public VPN” is banned in the terms of service. What is the definition for “public”?
It is considered public if its credentials are freely available on the internet.
Alexandr
A lot of these questions can be easily asked via a sales ticket… oh right, low end helpdesk
Hi, noob question: can I install windows server 2012 on the VPS?
Unfortunately, OpenVZ does not support Windows.
Alexander
one thing i not understand 🙂 about panels , 😀
zPanel / Sentora / Kloxo (Kloxo-MR / VestaCP are okay)
personally am vestaacp user , but i will be happy if you people explain why zpanel and kloxo are baned 😛

zPanel and Kloxo are known for their unpatched security vulnerabilities and exploits. We recommend using VestaCP or cPanel to control / host websites.

Some pretty bad packet loss this evening…
Did you open a support ticket with MTR reports or just commented here?
Ordered in Dallas great speed and ping from southwestern US.If you want to run a email server then stay away from LA locations because someone got all IP’s on that block blacklisted. Support fixed my problem though and re provisioned in Dallas.

I signed up for their cheap one-year plan almost one year ago, and I’ve found it unreliable overall. The VPS would often become available, and sometimes would not come back until I opened a ticket letting them know it was unavailable. Their response to those tickets would be something like “It should be fine now,” but no explanation of why it had gone wrong. Performance was also spotty, with sometimes unusably slow I/O.
Maybe I shouldn’t complain too much considering what I paid, but on the other hand my VPS’s from RamNode and Crissic are giving me much better quality for a similar price.
Do you have a ticket ID that I can make reference to?
Alexander
HUS-21074109, HUS-61145407, and HUS-555208059
These were mostly issues from mid-2015, when we were implementing a new DDoS mitigation solution that sometimes had false positives.
We have since switched to another provider for this, and would love the opportunity for you to try us again.
Alexander
Ordered a second VPS with them, and so far, so good.
Asked somethings to their support and they were ok in time, and nice.
Recommended at a good price.
Thanks for your feedback!
Alexander
Don’t buy server from them,they will simple suspended your server because node issue.
load average: 8.72, 7.02, 5.83
%Cpu(s): 16.8 us, 5.4 sy, 0.0 ni, 73.5 id, 4.4 wa, 0.0 hi, 0.0 si, 0.0 st
They suspended my server,the cpu usage is very low,and the load is extramly high,all apps stucked.
I send them a ticket,they finally replied “This server was unsuspended.”.
The CPU usage percentage was probably taken after the (un)suspension, as we only record the load average for suspensions.
Alexander
So you just want suspended someone’s vps and sell them again?or suspended them all and sell them again?
Hi Alexander, can you provide other DC in Asia which can direct link to China mainland? No need big band width, maybe 1-5m is enough, many clients need low ping to open website or play game. I heard that Current softlayer is already reject direct link.
We have sometihing in the pipeline to be released soon 🙂
Alexander

I bought 30+ vpses from them,not all of them have this issue.
It random haapened on some vps,maybe all of them,maybe i just don’t see it.
It would be high risk if you pay them yearly.
I have ordered about 30+ vps yearly plan about 10 month ago,now they changed the terms,and say that you are running prohibited service.
It is useless now.
Care to elaborate what was added?
What were you running?
Alexander
If you don’t allow it i won’t buy,and,i won’t buy anything from you in future.
A lot of vps provider do allow it,so,i don’t care you allow it or not.
Also cpulimit is useless if the cpu performance is bad enough.
My file got auto deleted,a lot of issue that caused the app not running normally,it never happened in my other vpses which bought from another vps provider.
I have been able to find tickets related to your case. Just to reiterate some key points that we mentioned in your tickets:
[VPS IP] is running Hitleap which is a a prohibited service.
[VPS IP] is running automated web browsing: Automated Browsing: firefox -P profile1 -no-remote imacros://run/?m=autosurf.iim
[VPS IP] is running automated web browsing: Automated Browsing: firefox -P profile1 -no-remote imacros://run/?m=autosurf.iim
HitLeap and other artificial traffic generators weren’t ever allowed with us; these items are also commonly prohibited with other providers.
All your VPSes have one vCPU core, and with the stats that you have posted here (load average: 10.97, 9.17, 6.76), you have been using at least 6 times your allocated CPU resources.

No CPU or Hardware Usage Restriction
Unlimited Bandwidth
With coupon 51% discount,2 core 1024 GB ram only about 2.7$ monthly.
They do allow all traffic generators.
Did you really not changed your terms?
hi really interested in getting hosting from u, is this suitable for my online gaming team (Clan) we want to run a voice commuication server like Skype called TeamSpeak 3. not sure on BW requirements so hope for unlimited we average 30 users at peak usage.
Unfortunately, TeamSpeak is not allowed as per our terms and conditions.
Alexander
What about murmur? It’s only the mumble client prohibited right?
Asked HostUS support about it and they replied: all VoIP-software is banned (not only TS and Mumble) because of possible DDoS-attacks.
Personally I do not see any sense in it (any other service can be DDoS-ed too), but their servers = their rules. Wanted to buy one VPS, but due to this rule it is “no go” for me…
Any chance to see a server bear benchmark from your Atlanta and LA servers?
Which plan, in particular?
Alexander
Thanks for the reply. This one:
– 6GB RAM
– 4 vCPU Cores (Fair Use)
– 1Gbps uplink
Just wanted to follow up and see if you got to do a serverbear on ether of those servers? Sorry to ask, just hoping to purchase a server today 🙂
Here it is: http://serverbear.com/benchmark/2016/04/29/wNBBlZ88kGwZMJGU
Alexander
Impressive benchmark! Thank you.
Sorry to ask, but any chance to see Dallas or LA?
They would have similar performance / network.
Alexander
I want to set up on OpenVAS box to do routine vulnerability scans of my other hosts. Would this be allowed or would this fall under “IP Scanners/Port Scanners” or “Hacking Tools”?
How many hosts are you looking to scan at once?
Alexander
Bought a 6GB Ram VPS
Going super 🙂
But, looks like speed is getting little slower day by day.. 🙁
Yeah, I kind of expect that to a point, but it is nice to see in away some of their packages sold out, show they do limit their servers reasonably. Any chance you can post a serverbear.com benchmark of your package?
Just bought minimal one, thanks. But I haven’t prompted to select OS image, and it defaulted to CentOS. Am I able to use some debian/ubuntu image?
Yes, you can choose Debian / Ubuntu from the rebuild page.
Alexander
This looks good for a minecraft server. Wow $1 a month for 768MB!
I installed CentOS on my box and it can’t pin anything external. Any suggestions?
Hello All,
I am using the services (VPS, Reseller Hosting) of HOSTUS.US for quite a long time.
No complaint and no hassle what so ever till now.
Their Customer and support services are (in my opinion) second to none.
I have used different providers since 1995 and I found HOSTUS almost perfect.
Any questions please do not hesitate to ask.
Hello,
I am using the services HOSTUS is providing for 2 years now.
I have 6GB special VPS 786MB RAM VPS and Premium reseller hosting.
All working fine. Super support service and ticketing system.
No complaints what so ever. I do not abuse the service and do not get suspended.
I am in hosting biz since 1995 and used (Still using 3 other providers) several providers.
Try them and you find what I mentioned is correct.
Ask any questions if you have.
All great! The only thing hostus doesn’t provide is API access for server management.
Yes, that is my only cons, I am sueper happy with this provider. Service is good, VPS works and support is nice. The day I can manage the VPS by API it will be great!
Just bought a VPS in London for personal VPN. WIll see.
So far no problems. Personal VPN works fine and fast.
Few weeks later still working great 🙂
Bought one in LA but someone had got the block of IPs on a spam blacklist. Support was very helpful and reprovisioned it in Dallas.
Two Mont ago.. I used your service! your London always maintain.. why it happens to much?
can i run ts3 server on these vps?
Can I install OpenVPN and resell it?
*not public VPN.
Good machine, but little slow on activation as it need manual review on payment.
Here my test on my new VPS configured at Washington DC:

I guess they maybe accessed my data without any authorition,so,i never put any important data on these vps which i bought from them,and also,you’d better do some respect to your customer.
IDS and networking kit can “see” the type of traffic and if you meet certain pattens then you get flagged so don’t moan when you get caught
