ijc.net Japan SoftBank VPS Review: Unlocks TikTok/ChatGPT, Excellent Performance for China Unicom/Mobile Users
IJC (Internet Japan Cloud) / ijc.net specializes in Japan SoftBank VPS and dedicated server services. They offer a 3-day unconditional refund policy, support credit card and Alipay payments, and have relatively affordable pricing. Here's a detailed review for reference. For those who don't want to go through all the data, here's a summary: The IP appears as UK native, unlocks UK TikTok, Japan ChatGPT, Disney+, Netflix, Steam currency, Reddit, etc., but cannot unlock Gemini and Claude; FIO test shows 4K read/write around 7MB/s with IOPS around 1.7K, quite limited; Geekbench 6 score is weak and doesn't display data; Unix bench single-core 743, multi-core 2493; All three networks route through backbone networks to SoftBank for outbound, and SoftBank to backbone networks for return, with particularly good performance for China Unicom and China Mobile.
