About NetNut
NetNut is the speed specialist, routing through ISP backbones rather than end-user devices so throughput stays high even under heavy concurrency.
Its architecture grew out of direct ISP partnerships, which is why its static residential routes feel closer to datacenter performance than typical peer-to-peer pools.
About Rayobyte
Rayobyte is the dedicated-datacenter workhorse, selling raw US-hosted IPs by the rack to buyers who care more about consistency than frills.
A US operation that built its name on bulk dedicated IPs with generous replacement policies before expanding into residential traffic.
