When one orders a dedicated 100mbit port, is 100mbit the speed of a dedicated internet connection or the speed of link to the network? Would this increase speed a lot? How much does one cost on x10? These are the questions that haunt me.

As I understand it, it would be the speed of the network connection. Upgrading to 100mbit may not actually make a noticeable difference unless the computer on the other end of the connection had an equally fast connection (It would make a difference if the other computer was on the same network, but probably won't make much difference over the internet.)
I believe most of x10's servers have a 10mbit connection.

I wonder actually... it's gonna be a virtual port as it's a virtual server. Each one doesn't have its own physical connection, so I'd imagine that the VPS host itself would have a 100mbit/1gbit/faster network connection,and each VPS is limited to 10mbit so one VPS can't starve the others.

It made sense in my head.
