Multi-homed at every location
Every ServerPoint data center connects through at least two major network providers. This multi-homed approach means:
- No single point of failure: If one provider has issues, traffic routes through the other
- Better performance: Traffic takes the optimal path based on destination
- Improved reliability: Network problems at one carrier don’t take you offline
We select providers based on their peering relationships, network quality, and coverage for each region.

Our own routers and switches
At every location, we own and operate our own networking equipment. We don’t rely on provider-managed routers or shared network infrastructure. This gives us full control over routing policies, traffic engineering, and network configuration.
When you deploy a VPS with us, your traffic flows through infrastructure we own and control - from the server, through our switches and routers, to multiple upstream providers.
Our AS number: AS26277
ServerPoint operates under Autonomous System number AS26277. An AS number identifies us as an independent network operator on the global internet, allowing us to:
- Announce our own IP address ranges via BGP
- Establish direct peering relationships with other networks
- Control how traffic enters and exits our network
- Maintain independence from any single upstream provider
You can verify our network information and see our peering relationships through these public resources:
| Resource | What it shows |
|---|---|
| AS26277 at Hurricane Electric BGP Toolkit | Prefixes, peers, routing graphs, IPv4/IPv6 info |
| AS26277 at PeeringDB | Peering policy, contact info, facilities |
| AS26277 at BGPView | Prefixes, upstreams, peers, historical data |
| AS26277 at IPinfo | ASN details, IP ranges, domain count |
These third-party tools provide transparency into how our network operates and connects to the broader internet.
