View 10 Repliesi just wrote a nice little page on the best location in the US for a VPS server for my Australian and New Zealand customers,
View 10 RepliesI have used VPSland.com before and was very happy with everything except bandwidth speed. If i ping the server, I get around 198 to 220ms response. VPS is hosted in USA, and I live in Auckland, New Zealand. www.vpsland.com
I am planning on starting my own personal business, which is going to be relatively small to start of with... I wanted to purchase a VPS to host my website as well as host few other websites for clients if required. I will be running typo3 content management system with mysql database. I wanted the response time to be better than VPSland.com.
The companies I have explored in NZ are 3 times more expensive than VPSland. I wanted a server which has around 300mb ram or so. Would prefer Windows 2003, if not Linux.
Please recommend me which VPS provider I should go with? I suppose it should be based in Australia or New Zealand as the traffic will be national mostly. or even USA or UK or any other country which provides good response time for NZ visitors and has competitive prices?
My budget is around $20 - 30 US max

What download speed do you get
I have 100MB/Sec port and normally always get around 500-600kbps download speed with DedicatedNOW but today I am only getting around 170kbps
I have a 10mb connection and when downloading file from here [url]I get 1.2MB/sec download speed
I asked support to confirm if I had 100MB/sec port and got a reply with:
"Your server is on a 100mbps port:
-bash-3.2# ethtool eth0 |grep Speed:
Speed: 100Mb/s
-bash-3.2#"
Sounds like a local issue. I am able to download at:
Response: 226-File successfully transferred
Response: 226 32.674 seconds (measured here), 6.12 Mbytes per second
Anyone have a good download test in chicago other then FDC's?
I was told i was upgraded to a 1GBPS port for free by my host(from a 10mbit) which is sort of weird, i want to confirm. at this time FDC's 100MB file takes me about 3 seconds to download and downloads at 44.7M/s.
the file is too small for me to try and pull 1gbit, by that speed i have a 500mbit line odviosely but i want to test against something outside of FDC.
I recently setup WAMP on my dedicated, and I'm unsure if the slow download speed is from WAMP or something else I need to remove from the dedicated. Might just be the distance I am from the dedicated because it's hitting 88.74Mb/s down and 71.19Mb/s up from a local city.
It's located in Kansas city, MO.

I ordered my first vps and uploaded a 1 page web site with a few graphics. I browsed to the web site and it took longer than normal to load the entire site with all graphics.
Is there a way that I can test my vps account speed?
Can i have a speed test from different locations. [url]

I'm comparing UK2 and RapidSwitch. I'm interested to know the d/l speeds from East/West coast USA, Asia, Australia. I'm assuming Europe would be fast.
I noticed that lately there are tons of cheap vps offers.
Before you pay for it ahead for next 5 years, test it.
From my experience with vpses going years back i do it this way.
Install Webmin if you do not have it.
Set it for https and MCS.Linux Them, one with all graphics.
Run WHT benchmark.
If you get a score 60+ great, test several times (day, night etc.).
Login into Webmin in https mode.
Go to others and click on System and Server Status.
If you get a full update under 8 sec that is good.
Reload few times and time it again.
In my opinion you are testing connectivity as well and not
only vps itself.
Otherwise i think you will be looking for another vps soon.
I've tried googling, searching on webhosting talk for 100meg test file, speed test for linux server, ect.. ect.. ect.. and I cant seem to find a damn thing.
Anyone have a recommendation for a place to download a 100mb test file to test out my speed? I'm looking for a server on a gig line.
Anyone got a 100mbit server at corenetworks that I could speed test from? The test file that I got from corenetworks was only able to give me about 500KB/sec so I think their server might only be 10mbit.

I've two shared hosting accounts, one is hostgator and other is godaddy.
I've uploaded a file (.flv) on hostgator and same file on godaddy.
here a link to both
Hostgator flv
Goddady flv
Now i am use a Download manager " free download manager" to download files
The hostgator file downloads at 17-35kb/s
The godaddy file downloads at 200kb/s
I am using 2Mbps dsl.
Also my hostgator cpanel loads slow. and other files are downloads at very low max 40kb/s.
What are the issues. I've contacted hostgator support and they say that every thing is ok on their end.
I have to stream videos on hostgator but the speed is too slow. and it buffers alot.

We have several site that are downloading. how may i limit this site
limit bw,omit speed download,limit connection and ... ecause this sites have very download and ...
my server is centos
I am in Europe, and during this week I´ve been doing some speed tests with the files most providers have on their website or they gave me the link here.
I am using a DSL 25Mpbs net connection for the tests.
Here some results from just 3 providers:
FDC (Chicago) - 250k
iWEB (Canada) - 1.2MB
Take2Hosting (San Jose, California) - 1.4MB
My point is, does these speed test file are of any use to have
an idea what speed you can expect with the servers?
The way I see it ,there´s so many variables (shared and how many shared servers for port,
your location, peak hours traffic, etc).
So how does this tests influence you to go for one provide, instead of another?

View 1 Replies View RelatedThe problem is that HTTP file download speed is nearly 10 times lower than FTP download speed. What could be limiting it? It's about 7Mb for FTP and 70-100Kb for HTTP. Strangely, download speed is OK when browsing from the server itself (e.g. via RDP)

We usually ask clients to do a speedtest to Netherlands. Most of the time their speeds are ok. I am hoping some one with streaming experience can advice me so I can ask Leaseweb for help.
I have just gotten a new server and the ping results were pretty fine. However, when it comes to the download speed its horrible. What could be the issue?
