 | View Full Version : Best way to test speed? Mattc0m 06-27-2004, 01:55 AM Just wondering the best way to test my server's upload and download speed. I know its "pretty damn fast", but I don't have a figure I can use. Its not important, but I would like to find it out. Ran 06-27-2004, 02:01 AM Put a large file on your server (about 100MB). Have some other people do a speedtest for you from their servers. Most have at least a 10Mbps or 100Mbps uplink. If your network and their network are both uncongested, you should be able to burst whatever your port allows. rossko 06-27-2004, 02:09 AM mattc0m, I believe you're hosted with AngelNetworkz correct? Someone did such a speed test earlier and hit 95.5Mbps. Mattc0m 06-27-2004, 02:10 AM Okay, thanks. (yes i am on AN). This isn't for anything official, just a hobby. apollo 06-27-2004, 04:45 PM you can also try to do "download" speed test from the server directly via web browser http://www.thespeed.com/ robowang 06-27-2004, 11:28 PM Mattc0m : Your server is very fast.
