Dark LES Theme (Current Too Bright On TV)

The white background on this forum is blinding on a fullscreen browser window on a large TV/screen. Be nice if there was a least an option to choose. Been checking the site less and less as it's too intense

The-Online.com Shared Hosting Review | cPanel Hosting and VPS Hosting

nickelodeon — Sat, 21 Aug 2021 07:34:48 +0000

About Shared-Hosting:
I have been a client with The-Online.com for 4 years now. The first order of mine which I ordered 4 years ago is still something I’m using to this day, it is a cPanel hosting service which has been running reliably (it hosts my main ecommerce business). Their shared hosting includes free backups with JetBackup. That’s a useful feature I had to use several times when I found myself accidentally deleting files! Also its lightning fast speed compared to my older web-host like godaddy, bluehost and namecheap-hosting. Ah! you get free domain name if you purchase hosting plan for annual terms. I had used their hosting deal where they offered 3rd year free-hosting if user purchases 2 years of hosting! I don't know if this hosting-offer is still going on or ended. But in all their service, uptime, reliability is top-notch and premium.

About VPS-Hosting:
I moved over two droplets from DigitalOcean over to The-Online.com VPS, both instances riding on 4 GB of RAM, one in U.S and the other in their Netherlands (Europe) location. Uptime and reliability has been very solid. Performance is better than DigitalOcean, not to mention the better cost savings for my wallet plus there 24/7 free support even for self-managed VPS. You can also order managed-vps with cPanel and dedicated support.

Fantastic deals for yearly pricing via Black-Friday. This company responses to tickets in less than 15 mins. Extremely helpful. No down time and excellent service provided all around. They don't care how much you spend with them, every customer is as important as the rest.

Overall a small yet, good and affordable hosting provider in U.S, Europe and Asia. you can give it a try.

OpenVPN Connected but no internet

abskillz — Fri, 05 Mar 2021 18:58:59 +0000

Hi,

I have recently bough VPS from @Abdullah (webhorizon.in)

Earlier I was using dedicated VPS for openvpn. Now I am switched to NAT VPS. The problem is when I am connecting to OpenVPN through mobile or desktop app. It is connecting to VPN but no internet is working. I am not expert in VPS so need help!

Please let me know if any screenshot or log to be shown here.

LES from Inception in Dallas: packet loss to/from Europe

ataribasementcluster — Thu, 05 Nov 2020 15:52:20 +0000

I use two VPS on the Dallas node from Inception for proxying. For a few months now I've been experiencing 2-10% packet loss on both, in general, in bouts, and at the connection initiation:

root@mylocalmachine:~# ping -f [we still don't post IPs, right?].98 
PING 56(84) bytes of data.
................^C   
--- ping statistics ---
214 packets transmitted, 198 received, 7,47664% packet loss, time 3361ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 242.600/278.443/320.271/17.202 ms, pipe 21, ipg/ewma 15.780/252.115 ms

it's similar to/from other euro machines in various directions, here's to OVH for example over IPv6, no difference really

root@LESVPS:~# ping -f my.machine.in.ovh
PING 56 data bytes
......................................................................^C 
--- ping statistics ---
521 packets transmitted, 451 received, 13% packet loss, time 8398ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 157.012/160.179/197.734/4.014 ms, pipe 14, ipg/ewma 16.150/159.652 ms

once the connection is over the pond, it's perfect

root@LESVPS:~# ping -f 8.8.8.8
PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8) 56(84) bytes of data.
.^C 
--- 8.8.8.8 ping statistics ---
752 packets transmitted, 751 received, 0% packet loss, time 10536ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 13.024/14.164/40.957/2.508 ms, pipe 4, ipg/ewma 14.029/16.485 ms

What's going on? Other LES nodes from Inception are fine but, obviously, the US proxy is most useful for getting around GDPR/cookie/geoIP nonsense.

LowEndSpirit got some traction: numbers and figures

alwyzon — Sun, 02 Aug 2020 08:13:39 +0000

When I first stumbled over LowEndSpirit through some signature below a comment on LET, I was curious whether there is actually some activity on this new platform or whether its just a nice idea which isn't well accepted by the community. Yeah, there were some posts on the front page, but I prefer hard figures over gut feelings. So I did my homework and wanted to share the (surprising) results with you folks. I hope this is as interesting to you as it was to me and that you don't mind me sharing the result.

Here it is:

There are still less new discussions on LowEndSpirit than on its older brother, but the difference is much smaller than I thought. Seems like we got quite some discussions going on here too, great job @AnthonySmith! Definitely worth keeping an eye on LowEndSpirit.

EDIT: Just replaced the figure with one counting discussions as logged in user (see discussion below). The original chart that just counted disucssions visible to non-logged in users can still be found here.

To answer the regular questions, click spoiler if you don't plan on reading the terms:

These are all limited time deals, please do not ask me to replicate them after this BF/CM season, despite typing this I know it will not matter much but if you are 'that guy' know that you are only 1 of 100 people asking so it is not a 1 time exception.

They will not be refunded, credited or otherwise if you did not think first before you bought.

Subscriptions are not available because people forget and double pay then want a refund.

I know no one reads the terms but agrees anyway so here is a quick overview of the important stuff.

CPU Abuse: 60+% of a core over 24 hours or 100% of a core for 1+ hour
Disk is a shared resource not dedicated to you, if your IOPS R+W requests p/s disrupts other customers or impacts their fair expectations of service you will be shut down as a rule please keep IOPS below 300p/s avg on regular services or 1000 p/s on SSD over 24 hours or 1500 p/s avg for 1 hour on regular services and 6000 avg over an hour on SSD services.

Tor = instant termination, no warnings, no "but i just" not interested, tor = gone

Torrents = same as tor, even over VPN/Proxy etc.

No crypto mining, wallets etc.

This all sounds harsh but you would not believe the things people do, terms are only imposed when they need to be, generally as long as your not bothering anyone there is no problem.

Shutdowns of services are automated only when you exceed 300% of the AUP i.e. exceed CPU/IOPS limits for 300% of the allotted limit (when you don't monitor your own server)

Hope that covers everything, nothing above that is not already made clear prior to payment.
