I doubt that you'll find you can consistently push or pull 1Gbps from a Hetzner server. I certainly can't. --That's not to say that they're a bad deal, but their total bandwidth is nowhere near what the major cloud providers can give you.

Cannot confirm this claim.

I've always got full 1Gbps out of Hetzner, even across the ocean, and for periods of multiple days of transfers.

(Like on all machines, you need to set the right TCP settings for windows sizes to make it physically possible.)

Why can't you? I'm doing this regularly (backups & restore). I get reliably 1gbit/s from other providers, also from US (with multiple connections of course). Haven't come across a provider where speed would be significantly below that.
