Downtime! Downtime! Downtime! I want FreeBSD! :-)

Hello FreeBSD-Chat,
I've got a dedicated freebsd box in the US, the thing is rock solid,
in 4 years time, I think it's been down maybe 3 times and in all those
cases, it was a bone-head mistake on my part... I like FreeBSD.. a lot.
Anyway, my FreeBSD box is located in the US and doesn't offer the
bandwidth I need... so I went to the dark side and tried out a couple
Linux VPS type of deals.
Here are the applications I need to run (reliably):
. icecast
. shoutcast
. nginx
I need this to be outside the US, preferably Europe or Canada,
doesn't matter. (it's SOCAN licensed, and I just don't trust the
US politicians not to bow down to lobbyists)
I'll eventually need around 4TB/month of bandwidth if I'm *really*
lucky... but probably not for some time (if ever)
With Linux VPS's (I tried both KVM and OpenVZ)
I tried chvps.com and edis.at
Here's what happened:
Network errors! every hour or more! it happened with only 6 or so
stream connections, (INCLUDING the incoming ones)
Obviously, no one is going to become a regular listener if they
get booted off for 4 minutes every hour... this sucks!
Does anyone know of a place that'll rent out FreeBSD jails, with
2 IP numbers? (and by that, I don't mean FreeBSD running in a linux
virtualization compartment.. I mean, freebsd running on bare hardware)
