    What VPS Should i get?

    Well i run an Xenforo forum with about 5+ people always on using shared web hosting.
    My current website host always blocks people for Port Scanning
    (i get many people banned for 11 hits in the last 72 seconds)

    Here's some things about my last month's hosting.
    Code:
    5GB Bandwidth Transferred a month 
    Less than 1GB Of Disk Space Used 
    Mysql Disk Space 27.11 MB
    What do you guys recommend in a VPS? (Looking for something VERY Basic, and Cheap about 5$/mo)

    Thats what most hosts do...


    However whats your budget?

    Do you need fully managed or not?

    What location?

    Do you require a control panel?

    I would say about 5$/mo is a good price

    Not fully managed

    USA

    Would be nice to have a control panel, but its not required.

    Good luck man, I am pretty sure all hosts ban clients that try to port scan on their networks. But who knows, maybe you will find a host that actually allows it...

    I dont think you can get a VPS host for $5 a month. If you can, please let me know where you got it, because I have never seen it. Good luck
