Well, you do not even fulfill the requirements. Also these are Anti Fraud checks, if you come and register with a VPN, you get declined. If you register with a vps provider, you also are required to turn off any VPN's. State of ze Nano. Just wanna publish a new update, regarding the new features + updates. Features Yesterday, I dropped a new update, which counts to the essential stuff, it was long overdue, so to speak. Enables the user to VNC into his machine + select a ISO of his choice and change the boot order. So, stuff like reinstall your OS can now be done anytime, by the user himself. netboot.xyz.iso has been added also on all nodes, which contains a large section of OS's you can install anytime + the already existing iso's. This also should, reduce the support requests, less work for me, nice. Updates As you may or may not know, the nodes are running Proxmox. Currently still Proxmox 5.x with Debian 9.11. The plan will be, to update these in the following months to Proxmox 6.x and Debian 10. So far, no major API changes, everything works as expected, so there should not be a big downtime to be expected. Upgrades will be announced, a few weeks in advance. That's it for now.

RE: NanoKVM | Free NAT KVM | Multiple Locations - Mashiro - 01-08-2020 NanoKVM Nuremberg - NAT VPS Review
Hello Post4VPS Community and especially @Neoon
I'm going to use the chance and post my review and opinion about my current free NAT VPS provided by NanoKVM (@Neoon) and their respective sponsors. When the NanoKVM thread was opened here I originally applied for a NanoKVM Canada NAT VPS and I got one. However the physical server that was used to host the Canada NAT VPSs was sponsored to NanoKVM for roughly 6 months and its sponsorship ended somewhere in November 2019 (CMIIW). @Neoon was so kind and offered a free replacement VPS in a different location (free as in without a need to reapply again to get one). I decided to request one and received a VPS located in Germany (Nuremberg, Bavaria). Due to a lot of work in real life I unfortunately had no time to write a review for the service when I had the Canada NAT VPS. I'll start with the review straight away. VPS Specifications Bellow you'll find a bit of information regarding the specifications of the free NAT VPS that I currently have. It's one of the smaller packages while nowadays you can get more resources if you can justify well enough. Look at the official NanoKVM site for all VPS plans and full resource overview (and all locations). Specifications CPU: Probably a Skylake based Xeon CPU (Family 15 Model 6 shown as Common KVM processor with 16 MB cache and 3.60 GHz frequency) CPU Cores: 1 RAM: 512 MB Disk Space: 10 GB SSD Bandwidth: Unmetered (Fair Use) Connection: 50 - 75 Mbps IP Adresses(es): /80 IPv6 subnet and 20 dedicated IPv4 Ports on a shared IPv4 IP address through NAT Location: Nuremberg, Bavaria, Germany (Hetzner) Virtualization: KVM (Proxmox) Control Panel: Custom NanoKVM panel using Proxmox API (support via e-mail) Below are the specification details gathered through my bench.sh 2.0 benchmarking script: Code: Processor : Common KVM processor Specifications are as advertised for my older and smaller package. Disk space information below: Code: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on So far everything checks out with the specifications advertised on the site and what I got. A nice little VPS that despite the resources can still be used for a lot of different things. You never had a really small VPS unless you experienced or owned a 32/64 MB RAM VPS with 2-5 GB of disk space . VPS Usage I have Debian 10 running on my NAT VPS and currently mainly use it for testing and development of my scripts and also as a web server for some of my domains serving non-public content (server to server connection, a normal visitor will see no website but just a web server response code "402" - greetings from Mr. Robot). Once I have my Docker setup fully up and running on my other VPS I will do something different with the VPS. Not sure what exactly, yet. It will still serve a lot of testing. So at this point I don't have much to say. It's doing great for my usage purpose. VPS Performance Benchmarks Let's get to measuring the performance of the VPS with a few different benchmark solutions for CPU performance, disk speed and network speed performance. CPU Performance I used Byte Unixbench and Geekbench 5 to benchmark the performance of the VPS. Byte Unixbench Result: 1322.4 points Code: ======================================================================== Geekbench Results: 1051 - 1057 points Results: https://browser.geekbench.com/v5/cpu/970273 To put this simple the single core I have is pretty much a beast. It outperformed by other VPS that has 4 cores. Yes, you read it right. The single core score of this VPS is higher than a quad multicore result of a Intel Xeon E5 CPU. You can feel it when using the VPS. Everything performs very snappy and tasks are done very quick. Nothing else to add here. Great performance thanks to the newer Skylake generation and high clock rates. Oh, there is 0% steal inside my container. Therefore I conclude that the node is very well managed and there are no noisy containers or abusers. SSD Performance I used dd, hdparm and ioping to measure different SSD performance values and below are the results with a summary for the performance level at the end. dd: Code: I/O (1st run) : 443 MB/s hdparm Speed Test (Cached): Code: Timing cached reads: 31878 MB in 1.99 seconds = 16054.61 MB/sec hdparm Speed Test (Direct): Code: Timing O_DIRECT cached reads: 946 MB in 2.00 seconds = 472.88 MB/sec ioping I/O Latency: Code: 4 KiB <<< . (ext4 /dev/dm-0): request=1 time=261.3 us (warmup) ioping Disk Seek Rate: Code: --- /dev/mapper/Debian10--vg-root (block device 10.3 GiB) ioping statistics --- ioping Disk Sequential Speed: Code: 5.58 k requests completed in 2.96 s, 1.36 GiB read, 1.89 k iops, 471.3 MiB/s The SSD performs as expected: very well. I'm getting speeds of up to 470 MB/s (average) anytime I test it with dd and other benchmarking tools. The I/O latency is very low meaning that requests are performed quicker which is generally the advantaged of SSDs. The SSD is not overloaded or you could expect way worse latency times and slower speeds. This great speed and responsiveness contribues a lot to the snappy and smooth experience so far. Network Performance To test the advertised network performance and how much of it I would really get/be able to use I used wget (download big test files), the speedtest.net CLI client and iperf3. Results are below. wget Speed Test IPv4: Code: Location Provider Speed Latency wget Speed Test IPv6: Code: Location Provider Speed Latency Speedtest.net CLI: Code: Speedtest by Ookla iperf3 IPv4 Upload (Serverius, Amsterdam, NL): Code: [SUM] 0.00-10.00 sec 81.6 MBytes 68.4 Mbits/sec 4468 sender iperf3 IPv6 Upload (Serverius, Amsterdam, NL): Code: [SUM] 0.00-10.00 sec 80.8 MBytes 67.8 Mbits/sec 4323 sender iperf3 IPv4 Download (Serverius, Amsterdam, NL): Code: [SUM] 0.00-10.00 sec 76.5 MBytes 64.1 Mbits/sec 199 sender iperf3 IPv6 Download (Serverius, Amsterdam, NL): Code: [SUM] 0.00-10.00 sec 74.9 MBytes 62.8 Mbits/sec 156 sender The advertised speed is between 50 and 75 Mbps and so is the real speed. Overall you can say that both Upstream and Downstream settle at around 60 - 68 Mbps over IPv4 and IPv6. As can be seen in the wget speed tests the speed to various different locations is quite great and pretty stable (both IPv4 and IPv6) which indicates pretty good connectivity to outside locations (outside of Europe). I'm more than happy with these results. RAW benchmark data: https://mega.nz/#!gQki3Q4I!Hvil0ZR17U_8NNi1QunisJiNkIPreN2WLJ1AgSTRPl4 Summary The NanoKVM DE NAT VPS that I received is a great small box with a beast CPU, a very speedy SSD and a great network. It offers enough performance for many projects and certainly for various testing. Despite the small amount of resources you can still run a lot of things on it if you know how to handle lowend boxes. While many might see NAT as a issue I don't think so. 20 dedicated IPv4 ports are actually enough for a lot of you use something like HAProxy. Infact NanoKVM offers HAProxy in their control panel so you can host websites and other stuff on port 80/443 inside your NAT container with different domains! The /80 IPv6 subnet is great if you have IPv6 or you can use a IPv6 to IPv4 gateway (CloudFlare for example) to actually host web applications and similar over IPv6 only but allow access over both IPv4 and IPv6. It's a great small dev box with great potential. RE: NanoKVM | Free NAT KVM | Multiple Locations - Neoon - 01-08-2020 @fChk Oh yea, was a mistake on my side, I accepted the request, its deployed. @Hidden Refuge Thanks for the Feedback. I/O is capped at 500MB/sec and Network at 7.5MB/sec, theoretically it goes up to 1.4GB/sec on I/O and 125MB/sec on the network. A lot of room, so if someone does compile stuff or run benches, it does not affect any other VM's on the node.
