Internet speed test

This is a very nice one. I'm waiting for something at school, was browsing the net, and found it. This is what I get at school. What do you get?

Ran it twice - not bad, I am running a few bits in the background.

I'm on the 600 service, what should I be getting for the 'outbound' test? If these values are low, what could be causing this?

i think it's an idiot, considering i am currently on 56k dialup and my network adapter is disabled in the bios :)

it was a slight dig at the test site jerrek supplied, it thinks my 56k modem is a 100mbit ethernet connection with obviously impossible upload speeds for my connection, so i think it is wrong ;)

too many http's in the link by the way :p:

Re: Internet speed test
 
The upload on that site is fine, but the download isn't. I ran it several times, looking at DUMeter, and while my upload was maxing out, the speed was limiting out at around 70k/s for the download. I know it isn't me because i've downloaded things to check. Best thing is to check it in the morning here when the server will be less busy.

The trouble with that speedtest is that the speed list is wrong for NTL (I've reported it and he said he'd sort it...) and you can't save the results (not even copy n paste) without registering. I donated a £5 for the original speedtest, without restrictions, and now he wants £10 to register the new version to unlock it. It's all gone to his head :rolleyes:

My system does alright in the speedtest - no mention of dial-up anyway :)

Mine is somewhat wrong for a 2 meg connection, the download looks ok but the upload sucks, it's fine if I upload stuff via FTP mind.

I wouldn't even bother using speed tests that aren't local(ish) to yourselves.

This one appears to be far more accurate:

Your line speed:

1813.3 Kbps

222.2 K bytes/sec

Though it doesn't test upload.
