Re: Speedtests?

said by insomniac84 See Profile :

Can you run a valid speed test once this is implemented? Such as on an off port? Or does "powerboost" effect traffic on all ports equally?
No you can't. Not if your talking about a speedtest at speedtest.net or site like it. I always get a kick out of some Comcast customers posting his speed test resluts and bragging about his connection as if the 25 Mbps is something that is consistant. I hope Charter never this route. When they get 16 Mbps here I want to know that I'm actually getting 16 Mbps.

You can do speed tests. You can do the best, most accurate one.. My Speed. You can't do it from Visualware's website but if you download the free MySpeed Lite you can test at any of Visualware's servers vis socket to socket...not html so it will be accurate.
