[Windows] How do I used iPerf in Windows 7?

I see that iperf seems to be a linux app? Is there anything I can use to compare my home network over wireless versus over powerline? I am getting a pair of EoP devices and I want to see how it helps my bandwidth over wireless, which gets only about 30Mbps each direction, so 60-70 total. But that is running speedtest.net, not testing my internal network by itself.

Can I use iperf in Win7, and how do I use it, how do I run it, set it up?

There are versions of iperf for windows: »mayoxide.com/iperf/

It is the same as the linux version.

How do I run it, just install and run? I saw that link and tried running it, a Command line box appears for a second and then disappears.

Open a command prompt (start menu->run, then enter "cmd")

You can run it from there. If you right click on the directory it is copied to, there might be a "command prompt here" option. There is no installation IIRC.

run it with the -h option and it will tell you the commands.

Oh I see now, I need 2 computers, a client and a server. That makes sense. I tried running a command window, but the directory I saved it to uses "&&" characters for the directory name, and the command window did not like that.

Try this -- »code.google.com/p/xjperf/

Windows functionality and no messing with CLI command switches.
