2gbit vpn please help me test my upload speed

[gfxguru]

i think the op got 1gbit vps coz the tests are not good

[djscooby]

Guyz first of all thanks for the test you realy helped me a lot...


@Gfxguru i opened a ticket and they told me that the speeds are good and that i keep in my mind that in that vps are 23 more people.. Previously i was @axisnext vps and am new to vps so i dont know a lot of the speed i expect... in compare with axisnext they fly here @axis i had 1mbyte /s to 5 donw and 2 up... for 1 gbit VPS

We're both on the same server, if I'm not mistaken. I'm just wondering why it seems like our 2gbit server has speeds similar to a 1gbit server...

In fact, I "raced" this 2gbit server with my 1gbit server and they have practically the same speed. These tests were not conducted on filehosts, of course, and were done at different times of the day. All the results were the same, either they are both running at the same speed, or the 1gbit is even a little faster than the 2gbit. Rarely does the 2gbit win the race...

I'm not saying that they might have sold us a 1gbit and claimed that it was a 2gbit. What I suspect is that the server might be oversold, which is the reason for its speed (or lack of speed). I'm sure that a 2gbit server should be able to do downloads in excess of 160-180Mbps, or at least 140Mbps. Fastest download speed I got from the 2gbit was 80Mbps.

My 1gbit can do that easily and highest speed I got from that was 140+Mbps...

@Phresh Thanks for the speed test


@Teks have u opened any ticket to the support regarding that ? I told them that the speeds are not so good and that on the main page they advertise a much better speed test and they told me that the speeds are good and that i have to keep in mind that there are 20+ more people on the server...

BTW correct me if i am wrong but 20.000kbyte is not 140 mbit its 240 aprox.. in my case

[Teks0427]

Yes I did and got pretty much the same answer that you got. We have to keep in mind that there are 20+ more people on the server? They have to keep in mind that 20+ people are paying for the service, so they should improve the quality, at least.

Anyway, I'm transferring to a new server by next week...

Any idea/proposal i am thinking of moving too.,, What about teh host ?

[Teks0427]

Teh Host is my first choice, but I'm still scouting around for others. Ionvm.com also has a plan that looks good on paper, their hybrid plan. It's supposed to be a semi-dedi VPS, or one that has fewer people on it than a regular VPS.

Another idea I'm considering is getting my friends to chip in and get a low priced dedi, but I don't see that happening in the next few days... I'll probably do a demo on a few more hostings before deciding...

not a big difference mate, the problem is that before 3 days i had 60Mbyte /s down and now i've 20 constantly... That is why i opened this speed test.. But some users here downloaded from me with 30MB/s so i am confused...

@Teks0427 Can u do a speed test from cachefly etc if its not too mutch trouble for you to see some becks for ion vpn?
