Six months on a NAT IPv4-only VPS · General Discussion

Been running similar stack in Vienna. My bank is Erste Group and they do not block CGNAT ranges, interesting that yours does. Which bank if I may ask, or is that too specific?

SSL for 50 subdomains: wildcard or individual? · Web Hosting

You can get multiple wildcard certs for the same domain from different CAs, or split by zone. But that's just more keys to manage.

Real talk: for 50+ dynamic subs, wildcard is the practical choice. Just lock down the server hard, use Hetzner's firewall, and store the key in their vault or at least...

RackNerd's AMD Ryzen deal just dropped unannounced · Deals & Offers

We have the internet box with InterServer already. Is this the same as the internet box or is this a second internet box? I called Dell for IT support and they said talk to InterServer. RAM is the storage or the speed?

How many hosts have you used in five years? · Reviews

RickRed said:
Vultr 4GB with 500GB block is 24 + 50 = 74 USD

Your math is wrong. Vultr block storage is 0.10/GB/month. 500GB is 50. But you don't need block, you need object.

Nextcloud works with S3. Vultr object storage is 5/TB/month. 500GB is 2.50.

Different product, right price.

Hetzner is not on the list but they are who I use too. Vienna to Nuremberg is 400km, ping 15ms. Why would I pay more for worse?

I tried Contabo once. 4 EUR for 4 cores, sounds good. But the CPU was from 2014. Never again.

Should I prepay OVHcloud 3 years to save €100? · General Discussion

Vienna to OVHcloud Gravelines is 22ms. To Hetzner Falkenstein is 18ms. Both fine. I went annual with Hetzner because their VAT handling for Austria is cleaner. OVHcloud invoices are a mess for my accountant. €100 saved is not worth the paperwork headache.
