FirstByte Singapore VPS Specifications and Pricing
The Singapore VPS comes with 200Mbps bandwidth. The minimum configuration includes 1 CPU core, 768MB RAM, 5GB storage, and unlimited traffic, priced at £1.47/month. Payment methods include PayPal and Credit Card; Alipay is not supported, which may be inconvenient for some domestic users.Latency and Stability Testing
Local Ping tests show an average latency of 283ms. Although latency is relatively high, the network stability is good, with no packet loss observed during the tests. Testing across major Chinese ISPs revealed the following:- Telecom: 358ms
- Unicom: 367ms
- Mobile: 128ms
Global Network Stability and Route Analysis
Global node tests show that the network is quite stable, both domestically and internationally, which alleviates concerns about high latency. Route analysis shows that Telecom and Unicom connections reach Singapore via the United States, while Mobile uses a Japan node. These detours explain the higher latency for Telecom and Unicom, whereas Mobile benefits from a more direct route.FirstByte Singapore VPS Plans and Pricing
