Please tell me what provider has free unlimited bandwidth.

I’ve heard this false notion so many times on HN and every time I check it out, the provider says clearly that they don’t allow for unlimited bandwidth.

So please tell me the provider. I’ll pay for a month of service for 10 Gbps unlimited service and then I’ll saturate that line up and down stream for an entire month.

And we’ll just see what happens, ok?

Unmetered rather than unlimited of course, but OVH, Online.net, Hetzner. These are rather well-known providers.

I haven't checked all of them for the exact language but Hetzner explicitly says "All dedicated root servers have unlimited traffic" for example.

Of course, they do have a limit for servers with 10 Gbps connections probably because of people like you who like to push the limits beyond what is reasonable.

Yep, those. Also FDCservers, Nforce, psychz, worldstream and countless of others.

I have extensive experience maxing out unmetered 10gbit lines with these providers 24/7. It’s been years and years since a host last tried to FUP me, bandwidth is just really cheap now.
