| Free tier | No free tier. The NAT-VPS page describes the plan as 256 MB of RAM with 21 forwarded ports on the shared IPv4 and a native /64 IPv6 subnet, but publishes no price and carries no order link: the page has no cart.php target at all. unit none; metered on none |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Per-object cap | not applicable |
| Retention | the page states 'Our NAT based VPS offers no refunds, no guarantees, and no backups' and 'A hard drive failure will result in a loss of all data' |
| Egress | no byte allowance published. The page states hard caps of 'Network Bandwidth (50Mbit/s)' and 'disk I/O (20MB/s)', and warns that 'the server will perform below these limits as the fair usage of resources by all the VMs on the node would mean something like 1MB/s of disk I/O and 400Kbit/s of network bandwidth' free_allowance: unmetered with a 50 Mbit/s port cap and a fair-use expectation of about 400 Kbit/s |
| Identity | card not established. There is no order path to follow, so the checkout and its fields were unreachable; the billing area exists at hosthongkong.net/billing with a standard WHMCS login. No ID requirement is published anywhere read. |
| Limits | |
| Binding | per-ip-shaping the effective network is about 400 Kbit/s under the vendor's own fair-use statement, which is far below the 50 Mbit/s headline and makes anything but a tunnel impractical. |
| Interface | ssh NAT KVM guest; the page names a 256 MB NAT KVM plan and says the OS may be reinstalled twice a month |
| Tooling | any SSH client; the WHMCS billing area at hosthongkong.net/billing |
| Composes with | not usable as a purchase because no price and no order path are published; the specification would suit a WireGuard endpoint if it could be bought |
| Reliability | the vendor's own page states there is no SLA, no guarantee, no backup and no refund under any circumstances, that a dispute carries a HK$500 handling charge, that as many as 128 VPS may run on one server, and that 'there may be no VPS services provided at all' |
| Notes | A dead end for the cart requirement, and worth recording as one because the specification is genuinely good and a normal English search surfaces it repeatedly. The page describes exactly the product is hunting: 256 MB, 21 forwarded ports, a native /64, explicitly IPv6-native, aimed at a VPN or tunnel. But it publishes no price and has no order link - the page source contains no cart.php target at all - and the five WHMCS product groups that do exist are shared hosting, reseller, KVM VPS, dedicated and colocation. So there is no way to buy this from the page that describes it, and the price is a dash rather than a guess. The vendor's own terms are the most hostile read: no SLA, no refund under any circumstances, a HK$500 dispute charge, up to 128 VPS per physical server, and an explicit warning that 'there may be no VPS services provided at all'. The verdict is dead as an offer, not as a company: the product page sells nothing, and the billing area might still sell it behind a login; what would settle it is a ticket to sales asking for the NAT-VPS price and order URL, which needs an account and was out of scope. One correction to a common assumption: the 50 Mbit/s port is a hard cap but the vendor states the realistic fair-use figure is about 400 Kbit/s, which is the number a buyer should plan against. |
| Evidence rung | documented the specification, the port count, the /64, the hard caps, the oversubscription figure and the no-refund terms are all quoted from the vendor's own NAT-VPS page read today. The price is not documented because the page does not publish one, and the absence of an order link was checked in the page source rather than assumed. |

Evidence (5)
| date | source | what it proved |
|---|---|---|
| 2026-10-24 | hosthongkong.net/?page=NAT-VPS | quoted: 'Your VPS will be accessible over the internet natively over IPv6, or via port forwarding for IPv4. A total of 21 ports from the SHARED IP are allocated to each NAT VPS. Dedicated IPv4 addresses are not available with the NAT VPS. ... We do however include a native /64 IPv6 subnet.' |
| 2026-10-24 | hosthongkong.net/?page=NAT-VPS | quoted: 'The NAT-VPS plan includes only 256MB RAM, and this will impact the performance of resource intensive applications.' and 'The most common use for the NAT-VPS is to use as a VPN / Tunnel.' |
| 2026-10-24 | hosthongkong.net/?page=NAT-VPS | quoted caps: 'Hard limitations include disk I/O (20MB/s), OS Reinstallation (2 times per month), Network Bandwidth (50Mbit/s)' and 'the server will perform below these limits as the fair usage of resources by all the VMs on the node would mean something like 1MB/s of disk I/O and 400Kbit/s of network bandwidth' |
| 2026-10-24 | hosthongkong.net/?page=NAT-VPS | quoted: 'Our NAT based VPS offers no refunds, no guarantees, and no backups!' and 'There may be as many as 128VPS running on a single server.' and 'A dispute handling charge is levied in the amount of HK$500.' |
| 2026-10-24 | hosthongkong.net/?page=NAT-VPS | the page source carries no cart.php?a=add target and no price for the NAT product: the only HK$ figure in the body is the HK$500 dispute charge. Its navigation points to /billing/clientarea.php, and the five billing product groups read (gid 1 to 5) are shared hosting, reseller, KVM VPS, dedicated servers and colocation - none is the NAT plan. |
