Boom: https://clients.inceptionhosting.com/cart.php?a=add&bid=19

Remember you are taken to the first location to enter a hostname/root password, then you move to the next and then the next.

Even if you just idle them, think of it as a cheap raffle ticket for the $900 give away in this thread: https://talk.lowendspirit.com/discussion/2158/the-ultimate-lowend-spirit-bf-cm-mayhem-free-free-and-more-free-big-dollah-giveaway

Are these the usual nodes? I'd buy them if they had different ips than the other ones I've got

How many nodes/ips do you have for each location?

I got spoiled by @cam and his BF-DOLLA-NAT posted on the wrong green forum, so I can resist any 128MB above $1.

However, my first 128MB NAT was in 2013 from Inception Hosting at €3.
At that time, the LES forum was hosted in one of these, was not green, and didn't have HTTPS.

Thanks @AnthonySmith for the offer. I have just recently joined LES and indeed my first grab here.

Sorry I should have asked before ordering. Is personal vpn (light use) allowed? (needs to open tun)

Send him some push-ups and he'll add a few for you.
My push-ups are served from the $1 container now.

Can somebody that got the bundle tell me if the external IPs are:

• UK: xxx.xxx.xxx.111
• NL: xx.xx.xxx.25
• PHX: xxx.xxx.xx.98

I have a bundle from a year ago (coming up for renewal). For me PHX is xxx.xxx.xx.44 and UK/NL are likely the same.

I'm not sure if there are multiple nodes or multiple IPv4s for the same node.

Perhaps @AnthonySmith can clarify. Since it's an "auto-allocation", I'm sure it's a hit or miss as to which IP you'll end up getting. And at this price point, I don't think it is fair to expect any "handholding" of the setup or to customize it.

Over the years, I've terminated and taken new bundles depending on the bundle, timing, my idling tendency and sheer laziness.

I just have this warm and fuzzy feeling when I have many VPSs to drool over and to count the number of cool things I could do with them in my copious spare time. Needless to say, all spare time that I have is invested in finding awesome deals to feed that wonderful imagination of mine thinking of the next coolest thing in the multiverse that I'm going to invent/code/make/design/build with that one more VPS purchase, which of course goes straight into the idling bin. I barely get to name them before the next victim asset arrives on the assembly line for record keeping, management and of course dreaming.

Pardon the rant...I was spontaneously creative on account of being rather wisely restrained in my idle-vestments this year. Good investments compound. By that standard, my VPSs have multiplied like pests and I've had to resort to some rather ungainly extermination tactics.

3 nodes, 1 in each location, 3 IP's per node.

It's pretty random what you get.

This sounds like a hoarding situation. You need to see a doctor.
No, not the @HostDoc .

I completely deny I have an addiction. Now if you'll excuse me... I'll have to get back to watching them deals.

Good thing is... hoarding VPS does not need any space under anyone's bed.

Unless you self-host them.
