[Friendly reminder] UCloud Hong Kong VPS’s bandwidth limit back to the Mainland is 2Mbps

UCloud, a listed company in mainland China, has gained a lot of fame recently because its overseas cloud server promotions include a Hong Kong CN2 VPS with 10Mbps bandwidth for only 4,500 yuan for 3 years. To be honest, the price and the bandwidth are really good. It is a very good deal, but today we saw a special explanation in a very hidden corner of its official website: the bandwidth from Hong Kong to the mainland uses a dedicated line, 10Mbps, and the bandwidth to the mainland is capped at 2Mbps. Please be aware of the big pitfalls.

2. UCloud global server promotion

Event address: UCloud Hong Kong VPS with 10% off on the entire site

UCloud has a Hong Kong VPS. The price of 4-core 8G10M is 4,500 yuan after coupon. Regarding the UCloud Hong Kong VPS review, this site has also shared with you before: review details, Hong Kong ZenLayer datacenter, Telecom two-way CN2 GIA, it is still very good , to be honest, the price of Hong Kong CN2 VPS with this configuration is very cost-effective. It just so happens that Alibaba Cloud International Newbie Package has stopped renewing recently, so this website itself wants to move the website to the UCloud Hong Kong datacenter.

3. UCloud Hong Kong VPS bandwidth limit

However, tonight I saw a note in the official UCloud documentation:

The bandwidth from Hong Kong to the mainland uses dedicated lines, and the product strategy is as follows:

Document address: https://docs.ucloud.cn/unet/eip/introduction

There are pictures and the truth:

The meaning of this strategy is that if the website is for users in mainland China, then if I buy a 4-core 8G2M Hong Kong VPS and a 4-core 8G10M Hong Kong VPS, the effect is actually the same, but the former costs 2,300 yuan for 3 years, and the latter 3 4,500 yuan per year.

Moreover, UCloud’s bandwidth limit is not explained at all on the activity page. You have to look for the product documentation to see this policy, which is too confusing. If 2Mbps can already meet your needs, UCloud is also a good choice. If you plan to buy 10Mbps bandwidth, just look for another one, because 10Mbps has the same effect as 2Mbps.

I chatted privately with UCloud customer service about this issue, and his reply was that Alibaba Cloud limits CPU performance, and UCloud limits bandwidth for the same reason, and there is no false propaganda. However, all t5 instances of Alibaba Cloud that limit CPU performance will be written very clearly in the server configuration. Your UCloud bandwidth is limited in such a hidden place, and users have to find it themselves. Can it be the same?

4. More Hong Kong VPS recommendations

As mentioned earlier, the Alibaba Cloud International Edition novice package is no longer allowed to be renewed. This site is also looking for a suitable Hong Kong VPS for building a website. Now that I think about it, the previous Tencent Cloud Global Shopping event was still very suitable, but it is a pity that it is offline now. , UCloud limits the bandwidth to 2Mbps, and is not suitable for websites with large traffic. Banwagonhost Hong Kong is indeed very popular (Move Banwagonhost Hong Kong CN2 GIA evaluation: delay, speed, routing, packet loss rate, etc.), but the price is too expensive and it is really impossible. We are moving to the CN2 GIA datacenter in the United States. If you have a useful Hong Kong VPS suitable for website building, please leave a message to recommend it.
