Test Our Network
Ping, traceroute, or download a test file directly against our Montreal network — the same network every NordServ VPS, game server, WordPress, and email service runs on.
Montreal offers strong latency for Canada and the US Northeast, with solid performance across North America and Europe — and every plan is billed in CAD, which often works out cheaper than the sticker price for US and EU customers.
📡 Ping / Traceroute Targets
🛡️ DDoS Protection
Included automatically on every plan — nothing to configure. Mitigation activates the moment attack traffic is detected and can absorb up to 10 Gbps. If an attack exceeds that threshold, the targeted IP is temporarily null-routed (traffic dropped upstream) to protect the rest of the network — standard industry practice, not unique to us — and normal traffic resumes once the attack stops.
Test files are served from download.nordserv.ca, hosted on the same Montreal network. Live uptime for all NordServ services: status.nordserv.ca ↗
