Yeah, that sounds about right to me. I'd look for a different provider if you're looking for speed. Like I said above, OVH was unusable to me so I went to hetzner.

Lookup "lowendbox" if you want something cheap. I used some Christmas or new year deal at racknerd that was alright.

Is your test TCP or UDP? My guess is that's TCP traffic.

Your VPS provider can rate limit as specific as a single UDP port. Try a different WG UDP port or wrap your WG traffic in TCP with other software and try again.

They're doing it and they're NOT backing down. It's been made very clear people are not happy, some have straight up said they'll quit to upper management.

As I understand it, Québec is the only place telus can't do this because it's not going to affect them.

I'd almost say your exposure is bigger in the cloud. WAY more software involved, it's shared environment, and someone elses computer.... In addition, it's complex to properly setup. People often leave it alone once they get it working, no security test or checks.

Even IF it was because it was hosted at home, I blame the companies who build this shit. Market to end users, "super easy to use!!" But no security by default? Nuts.

Enable auto updates, randomly generated admin password (no defaults like 123456), and support for more then 3 years will go a LONG way for the average consumer.

Yeah, it's the entire thing /s

Everyone needs to calm the fuck down. This isn't going to end well for anyone if we have WW3.

There was a Whisky war over an island.

This is how shit should be settled, not whatever the fuck the rest of the world is doing.

This is what I first thought of. Now I'm picturing someone floating in the air, limp, with two hotair balloon sized balls.... Lovely.

What kind of firewall do you have? (Not on the VM, though something similar might work there also)

I use OPNSense and have an allow rule for the specific IP and port my VPN uses from that VM's IP. Then a block everything from the VM IP after the allow.

I can connect to the VPN no problem, updates and everything work through the VPN. When it goes down it trys to connect normally and fails.

DNS can be a problem when trying to connect to the VPN so make sure to use the IP

Disroot support never responded to my request, even though I supported them monthly so I looked elsewhere. No complaints with mailbox.org

I personally follow all the technology communities and just show new subscribed content on my main page. Some content is the same but there's a lot of different posts too.

It kind of sucks that there's several sub's with a lot of people but then again, that's the point, right?
