Hello,

Do any of you guys know of any VPS company in south africa that has some sort of capacity on SAFE cable to Singapore?

I am looking to connect to my VPS in Singapore (AWS or vultr) and would like to find out if any local company has some form of capacity on SAFE since the latency would be +-120ms from Johannesburg. Would be much better than default routes that my ISP have.

Test IP at vultr in Singapore : 45.32.100.168

Kind Regards
 
@Domains.co.za (Wayne) maybe a tracert from you guys?

Ask https://virtualservers.co.za/ for a trace, I believe they got good connectivity to Asia
Ah, have a VPS there, here's a traceroute from Cape Town (on the R99pm product):

So 261ms from Cape Town.

You can choose to host in Johannesburg as well AFAIK, I was specifically looking for CT servers when I got the datakeepers one.
 
Something like this:

sent=5 received=5 packet-loss=0% min-rtt=115ms avg-rtt=115ms max-rtt=118ms
Yes that is great! Would be great to get that without moving ISP's :( Such a mission to move these days.

Websquad doesn't do any vps hosting?
