How do I test my network speed? What are the best sites to do so?
By OSAf W on May. 05, 2008
You could do it online. A Google should get you lots of site to do a speed check.
But incase yu are looking for a tool to check yur network card speed yu could use an excellent open source option Freemeter (during a download). http://open-source.onestop.net/2006/06/freemeter.html

Try speakeasy.net. They have good tools to check bandwidth and network speed

Well, you can always run a ping test to see what your timings are. You can also go to http://speedtest.net - that includes a ping test and also has a neat sharing option. It's amazing to see the number of tests being conducted around the world (assuming their stats are accurate)!!

Network speed is not the same as bandwith. I think the question is about measuring the actual speed of the LAN.

I use speakeasy.net which is similar to speedtest.net but with better results. There seems to be a bit of a lag with speedtest.net. With speakeasy I get nearly 21Mb on the download test while speedtest shows about 18Mb.
