Comment on CGNAT blocking external access to NAS. Looking to address this plus more.
MonkCanatella@sh.itjust.works 11 months agoMy concern with using any cloud host would be streaming 4k plex videos over it. I have a feeling that would end up being pretty costly. I’d prefer this whole set up over the cloud but I chose VPS because it allows TBs of bandwidth included in the price which should be more than sufficient.

Oracle give 10TB of outbound bandwidth per month for free. Inbound bandwidth is free.

Oh wait, from my research, with oracle free tier, the bandwidth isn’t the issue, but the speed. It’s limited to 50mbps. I think that limits to like, 1080p no? Would be awesome if it worked for 4k

The ARM instances are gigabit. The AMD micro instances are 50 mbps. Most streaming services are in the 15-30 mbps range for 4K video.

I got set up with one today! Huge thanks for the tip. I would’ve overlooked it because I didn’t know about the ampere instances. Ridiculously powerful.

For the ARM instances they’re a gigabit per OCPU, which you can get 4 of for free (assuming you’re lucky enough with availability), so you can theoretically get 4Gbps for free.

Oh shit O_o. That could easily do everything I need my VPS to do but better. That sounds ideal, I’ll have to look into that.
