The tools such as iperf need some level of expertise to use. some end users lack this level of expertise. are there any tools simply for end users to use that can accomplish the same task?\ Regards, Shake Righa On Fri, Nov 20, 2009 at 6:56 PM, Jeff Shultz <jeffshultz () wvi com> wrote:

Regards, ShakeNice ISP's will put speed test software on their backbone so you can test the speed of your circuit to the backbone. Remember that the speed your provider quotes you is probably the full throughput of the circuit. Some circuits, such as DSL ones, will read up to 15% slower due to ATM circuit overhead. -- Jeff Shultz
