Bandwidth Speed Test

[Evil Chris]

Test out the connection your ISP is giving you with this cool test.

I rated 3.4 megabits per second.

Communications
2.1 megabits per second
How communication devices are rated. Kilo means 1,000 and mega means 1,000,000. Examples include 56k modem and 10Mbit Ethernet

++++++++++

Storage
250.6 kilobytes per second
The way data is measured on your hard drive and how file sharing and FTP programs measure transfer speeds. Kilo is 1,024 and mega is 1,048,576.

++++++++++

1MB File Download
4.1 seconds
The time it would take you to download a 1 megabyte file at this speed.

[gregtx]

Yeah.. that is the one downfall of cable.. you are sharing with everyone on that line...

i'm limited to 1.5 on our T-1.. but everyone in our office is getting 1.5... but that is also up and down... not sure about canada.. but most att broadband and dsl lines.. here in the us (in our area anyway) limit to 128k upload...

true, and i guess at 2am there are less people on board...

You can also use this thing to test your server. Of course it will never be the absolute top speed of the server but it's a good indication. When I tested it my score actually went from 1.3 to 1.5 megabits so it was faster than their server, hehe.

From home on cable, I ran it 5x and this is about the avg.
