I’m using contabo and the VPS I got is advertised as 1 Gigabit. When I do a speedtest or use iperf3 to connect to public servers I get pretty close to 1 Gigabit. But from my residential IP the speed drops down to 100-250 Mbit/s. My home internet connection can handle 500 Mbit just fine.

I’m looking for a new hoster with a better network connection. What real world speeds do you get with your server?

    My server is on my LAN, so I get full Gigabit connection.

      Distributed my servers across a couple old PC’s hooked up to a 10 gig switch, admittedly I hardly use it for anything - but my syncthing cloud maxes out any connection locally
