Network facts

Latency reference from North America West Coast to US West

For common access routes from North America West Coast, the average round-trip latency reference is 25~35ms. This figure helps assess interactive distance before ordering and does not represent a fixed result for every local connection.

Round-trip latency reference

How to assess connection quality

The experience of a remote Mac desktop depends on round-trip latency, jitter, packet loss, client upload quality, and display settings. Even with low latency, significant jitter can make mouse and keyboard input unstable; when large file uploads saturate the upstream connection, screen updates can also slow down.

  • For interactive development, use a wired connection and pause large file uploads before connecting.
  • For your first connection, start with a commonly used resolution and standard color depth, then increase image quality gradually.
  • For CI/CD tasks, also compare the network paths to your code repository, dependency sources, and artifact storage.
  • Before migrating production work, test sustained SSH and VNC connections from your actual office network.
Service facts:Physical nodes operate continuously, 365 days a year. The actual remote experience varies with the client’s carrier, cross-network routing, usage time, and local network load. Use continuous test results from your usual workplace as the final basis for choosing a node.

Provisioning timeline

About 4 minutes from payment confirmation to first connection

Deployment proceeds through resource locking, system preparation, and credential issuance. Choose your rental term and add-ons before ordering to avoid changing the configuration after payment.

  1. 01
    Payment confirmation About 30 seconds

    Verify the order and payment status

    The system confirms the base model, rental term, storage upgrade, and interconnect quantity, then records the settlement in USD.

  2. 02
    Resource locking About 30 seconds

    Reserve the physical device for delivery

    Once inventory is confirmed, the entire Mac mini is assigned to the current order. Its chip, memory, and system drive are not shared with other tenants.

  3. 03
    System preparation About 2 minutes

    Initialize the macOS remote environment

    The system configures networking, the account, and remote connectivity so the macOS graphical interface and command line are ready to use.

  4. 04
    Credential issuance About 1 minute

    Generate node details and connection credentials

    The console displays the node address, system account, and temporary credentials. Change the credentials immediately after your first login, and configure SSH or VNC as needed.

Estimated total time About 4 minutes

Region FAQ

Three questions before ordering a US West node

Pay close attention to inventory, latency methodology, and data handling during the rental term. For a specific order, sign in to the console, submit a support ticket, and include the order number.

Does the price shown mean that a US West node is guaranteed to be in stock?

The price reflects the billing standard for the current fixed model and term; it does not represent real-time inventory. Each physical device can be assigned only once, and inventory changes as new orders are placed and terms end. Confirm the availability of M4 Core in the console before submitting an order. The device enters the delivery process only after payment confirmation and resource locking are complete.

How should I interpret the 25~35ms latency from North America West Coast to US West?

This is a round-trip latency reference for common access routes from North America West Coast, intended to provide an initial estimate of remote desktop responsiveness. It excludes additional effects from local Wi-Fi congestion, cross-carrier routing, and background uploads. After ordering, test SSH command response, VNC screen updates, and file synchronization separately on your actual office network before choosing resolution, color depth, and transmission settings.

What should I do before the US West node’s rental term ends?

If you need to continue using the node, renew through the console before the term ends and recheck the term and add-ons. If you will not renew, export project files, keys, build artifacts, and required logs in advance, and remove the runner registration and temporary access keys from your CI platform. Large data exports require sufficient transfer time; do not wait until the final hours of the rental term to begin synchronization.
