10 Gbit/s servers in Germany

[Huhu3838383 1]

@Staff will Germany also get a 10gbps server any time soon?

Thanks

Thank you for another 10Gbit/s Server, is there a plan to replace more 1Gbit/s Servers, especially in Germany? I read that a limiting factor are CPU demanding OpenVPN connections. Is there a plan for Wireguard only servers with bandwidth higher than 10Gbit/s or similar solutions? I assume this would increase anonymity with more users per server.

Cheers

A Wireguard-only server will seriously cripple the capabilities of such a server, what with Wireguard only supporting UDP. It's so easy to restrict access to it. So it will probably not even be considered.

Hello @Staff
Any news regarding 10gbps servers in Germany?

Thank you for the insight, I have not considered the blocking/availability aspect. I hope there is a way to consolidate more servers into 10 or even 25Gbit/s servers. Considering I am only paying 2,2€ per month I feel kinda bad asking but I would gladly double that for this great service with higher bandwidth servers.

Implies you're able to use that bandwidth. Also, a 25 Gbit/s link would require some serious CPU backing server-side. With AMD EPYC processors this might be possible, but this must come with unmetered bandwidth stable enough to be comparable to the current server fleet. It's a cost driver if I ever heard of one.

Not sure if you meant at the end user point but I guess you did.

Honestly, since "some other" provider stopped offering port forwarding I am seeing the whole Air network kinda struggling. I hope they will implement more servers soon.

Lack of replies doesn't inspire confidence. I'm frankly seeing degraded performance in P2P applications. For instance, the server I'm connected to currently, is sitting at 78% load and performance is nowhere near where it should be.

Kinda makes me unhappy about my long time commitment to AirVPN (four years till expiration).

Hello!

Good news, we will start testing a 10 Gbit/s server in Germany before the end of January and if everything goes well we should make it available a few days later. We are waiting for the equipment to be connected between January 20 and 25.

Kind regards

Amazing news, I hope there are more to come, thank you!
