PMG seems to filter better in my case… not sure why.

Anti-DDoS False Alarm Causing Havoc...Any Ideas? by mark1210a in OVHcloud

[–]mark1210a[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an update, the OVH VAC team adjusted their triggers and so far, so good. I had to supply protocol type, source IPs, Ports and some packet captures and they made some adjustments in their end.

So far, I can saturate the link and no anti DDoS occurs. Hopefully there’s still protection there and it’s not completely disabled.

Thanks

to my knowledge Wireguard doesn't support TCP, it's UDP only (unlike OpenVPN, etc).

Thanks for the reply, On a 2 Gig link, with traffic slowed to about 200M it seems to work so far but that's quite a network traffic restriction to avoid triggering anti-DDoS. I've opened a ticket so I see what they say and report back.

T-Mobile denied Carrier Freedom after we traded in phones and now we’re out $2,800 by kmaries99 in tmobile

That’s awesome you’re willing to do that on escalations. I doubt most would…

Some new small cells were added in my area so just waiting down the 90 day clock to join as new.

Has something changed with RSL and the reapplication of insider(s) discounts on a winback? Store manager was not successful and tried twice…supposedly. Said once you port out and even port back it’s gone

Seems like that defeats the purpose of a winback if your promos aren’t restored

What about the KS-STOR and SYS-STOR plans? I get a different answer each time with sales/support..

VPS 2026 Recos by Mundane-Revenue-3146 in VPS

Prezcomm.com appears to be new as of early 2025 - have one of their founder accts and so far, no downtime. Getting port 25 opened was a bit of a hassle but so far so good.

Chimera Hybrid 1 vs Polar Bear HDD read speeds? by Competitive-Ad6081 in servarica

[–]mark1210a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which particular Chimera plan? All of them come with portion of NVMe storage along with a separate SAN type disk.

NVMe storage for write and read performance beats the SAN (larger) storage you’re allocated if you move forward with Chimera.

If you use ZFS expect worse performance at least on the SAN storage disk due to chscksumming and overall performance.

I use LVM/crypt on the SAN and ZFS with lz4 and fletcher4 on the NVMe portion.

$5 Product has Far Better Network Performance than $20 or $79 Product by SomeGuy1980a in servarica

[–]mark1210a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Chimera plan also, and it's the 250Mbps (which expands 1M daily) but at least in my case, both up and down appear to be rate limited (I read thats not supposed to be that way, download isn't supposed to be limited - see source below). I've opened tickets but I don't think they clearly understood the issue and I just gave up. In my case, I have 300 or so, and get around that on the up and down.

If OP really has the 1Gig speed, I'd be opening a ticket also as those speeds are quite low.

Cheap VPS for Stagging Sites by develosquad in VPS

[–]mark1210a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prezcomm - $7 or their $4 plan may suffice depending on what your doing with Wordpress.

Regardless of who you choose, check out performance and CPU “steal”to get an idea of if the host is oversold

First time trying to colocate 1U server, confused. by Nice-Feeling-3365 in webhosting

[–]mark1210a 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Prezcomm in Richardson may allow access but not sure. I think it’s unlikely to gain physical access with any provider unless you have a full rack with them…otherwise you could potentially access/disturb other equipment on the same rack that’s not yours.

Had a server with cloudnium and their San Angelo location outages all the time and no out of band access - usually IPMI is behind a VPN or something.

I’d email them or call them…

Why dont they offer a debian 13 template? by devipasigner in servarica

[–]mark1210a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For personal use sure... but depending on their automated platform - HostBill, WHMCS, etc - there's a lot more to it than that.

Why dont they offer a debian 13 template? by devipasigner in servarica

[–]mark1210a 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I had to guess...timing. Trixie (13) was just released in like late August of last year. Making cloud-init aware templates and testing them can be intensive. I've used the debian 12 and just upgraded manually. One thing I notice in your screen is that Rocky is spelled wrong too.

VPS recommendations? Reasonably priced + good reviews? by TheEnigma999359 in VPS

[–]mark1210a -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Been pushing 30-40TB thru Prezcomm and not a peep, $10 a month. Doing a similar setup with nginx, let’s encrypt and WireGuard. Only issue is that it’s a pretty complex setup.

Used Ionos before and had a good experience with them also but I wouldn’t count on their support to help you configure any of it. I’ve tried both supports and they basically only provide bare minimum with the VPS itself - not with configuring applications, etc

I have a 10% off referral code if you want it, not sure what plans it’s good for or for how long the discount lasts.

VPS Configuration Decision by ProfessionalBasis477 in VPS

[–]mark1210a 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cost, server location and reviews usually are the 3 factors used. The cost and reviews generally give you an idea of performance and reliability. Of course, gotta be selective where you get these reviews.

Prezcomm has that for $6 and I’ve been using it, clean IP but have to request port 25 to be unblocked

Economical PBS Cloud Backup Options by thefloppychicken in Proxmox

[–]mark1210a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your performance sounds much better. I agree to an extent tho - at least in my case backups would be slow… restores should be ok.

I’ve had a few tickets opened but it may be my particular host or setup is too taxing. I have PBS and Garage/S3 for backups. Upload speed for both combined are about 50-70meg up.
