DashboardA detailed guide to moving your game server to 5GHz Hosting. Why move, what you get and how to do it in 15 minutes without losing any data.
If you are reading this page, something about your current host probably doesn't suit you. You are not alone: servers move to us every month, and the reasons are usually the same.
Lag and low TPS. The most common complaint. The server stutters, mobs freeze, blocks break with a delay. The cause is almost always the host's weak CPU. Minecraft is a single-threaded game and needs the highest core clock, not more cores.
Poor support. A ticket waits for hours, nobody answers in the chat, and the server problem is happening right now. For game hosting, support speed is critical: if the server is down, players leave and may not come back.
Too expensive for what you get. You pay every month, yet the server still lags, there is no DDoS protection and the control panel looks like it's from 2010. For the same money you can get much more.
No DDoS protection. Attacks on game servers are common. Without proper protection, one kid with a free stresser can take your server down for the whole day.
An outdated control panel. If you need a separate FTP client to upload files and you can't properly view the console in the panel, that belongs in the past.
We are not just a host: we build infrastructure specifically for game servers. Here are concrete figures and facts, not marketing promises.
Top CPUs with the highest core clock: a stable 20 TPS even with dozens of plugins.
Every server is protected against attacks at no extra cost.
A modern panel with a file manager, console and automatic core installation.
Live technical support in the online chat at any time of day.
Honest prices with no hidden fees. Everything is included in the plan.
Servers in several data centres for the lowest ping.
Plans start at €1.99 per month. For that you get dedicated resources, the game control panel, DDoS protection and round-the-clock support. No hidden fees: everything is included.

Moving a server is easier than it seems. The whole process takes 15–30 minutes, and if anything goes wrong, our support will help at every step.
Download the worlds, plugins, configs and databases from your current host.
Create an account at my.5ghz.host and choose a plan.
Upload everything through the panel's file manager. Drag and drop is supported.
Check the core version, server.properties and plugin settings.
Start the server, check the console and give your friends the new IP.
Step 1: Download a backup from your current host. Open your current host's control panel and download all server files. The most important are the world folders (usually /world, /world_nether, /world_the_end), the /plugins folder and the config files (server.properties, bukkit.yml, spigot.yml and others).
Step 2: Sign up at 5GHz Hosting and choose a plan. Go to my.5ghz.host, create an account and choose a suitable plan. Not sure which one you need? Request a free 24-hour trial.
Step 3: Upload the files through the panel. Once the server is created, open the control panel. Go to the file manager and upload the downloaded files. The panel supports drag and drop and uploading archives with automatic extraction.
Step 4: Configure the server. Make sure the core version (Paper, Forge, Fabric and so on) matches the one on your old host. Check server.properties: the port, the maximum number of players, the game mode.
Step 5: Check and launch. Start the server from the panel and check the console for errors. Join the server and make sure everything works: worlds are in place, plugins are loaded, commands work.
The short answer: absolutely everything. A game server is a set of files, and all of them move one to one:
After the move, players won't notice any difference, except that the server may run faster.
up to 1 GB of files, vanilla or a few plugins
1–5 GB, dozens of plugins, a big world
5+ GB, a server network, mods, custom maps
