> The by far biggest cable goes from Finland to Germany. No idea what happens after that. I believe Hetzner uses it and I have never heard that they wouldn't have enough bandwidth. But I have neither inside knowledge nor do I use them. Packet loss can have numerous causes, not having enough bandwidth is one but faulty or misconfigured gear or misconfigured routing can also cause issues. > Maybe Hetzner has more noisy neighbor issues because they are cheaper? The same could hold for Scaleway, but I have never noticed anything. Yeah, in general, cheaper virtual servers are more likely to have these problems, just like cheaper bandwidth is more likely to be oversold. Low-cost providers can push it pretty far if most of their customers are hosting low-to-moderate-traffic websites or other HTTP services, which are pretty forgiving of steal time, low-level packet loss & latency.
