IP Quality Test
In IP attribute testing, the XSX Singapore node provides a native IP. Although the cleanliness is not top-tier, the overall quality is neutral, making it suitable for most use cases requiring moderate to high IP quality, such as website hosting and lightweight overseas services.
Local & Nationwide Latency Performance
Local Ping tests show stable latency around 100ms with no noticeable packet loss. Nationwide tests show:
- China Telecom average latency: 216ms
- China Unicom average latency: 283ms
- China Mobile average latency: 128ms
- Hong Kong / Macau / Taiwan & Southeast Asia: ~42ms
Overall, the VPS performs best in Southeast Asia and nearby regions, while mainland China access still suffers from routing detours.
Global Node Stability Test
After testing across nearly 100 global nodes, the XSX Singapore VPS shows no significant packet loss and strong stability for overseas access. Mainland access remains stable as well, making it suitable for multi-region deployments.
Network Routing Analysis
- Telecom / Unicom: routed via San Jose, USA → Singapore
- Mobile: routed via Hong Kong → Singapore
This indicates typical detoured routing for Telecom and Unicom, while Mobile has a relatively shorter path.
Download Speed Test
In local testing, download speed reached approximately 3.7MB/s. Considering the non-direct routing structure, this is still a solid performance suitable for remote work and application hosting.
