Re: Speakeasy Speed Tests
Here's another SpeedTest site to try:
»whisper.cs.utk.edu:7123/
ORNL TCP Web100 Bandwidth tester
This is a java applet to test inbound and outbound TCP bandwidth (Kilobits/sec) from your browser to this web server. Each test takes about 10 seconds. Click on "start" to start tests. Speeds may vary as server and network traffic loads vary. Links that do compression may give unreasonably high data rates since we send the same packet over and over. The applet connects to three non-http ports on the web server, if your browser is behind a firewall, such connections may be denied. The server supports a Web100 linux kernel as part of our research in bulk transfers and associated Web100 experiments. The Web100 data shows you various TCP kernel variables for the transfer from the server to your client applet. Since this is an experimental service, it may also happen that the "bandwidth server" is not running at the time of your test. Your browser's "Java console" may provide additional clues.
Another one to try is:
»miranda.ctd.anl.gov:7123/
ANL Web100 based Network Configuration Tester.
This java applet was developed to test the reliablity and operational status of your network link. It does this by sending data between your desktop computer and this remote Web server. This tester can determine the type of link (Fast Ethernet, Ethernet, 802.11b Wireless, or DSL/Cable Modem) and duplex (full or half) settings of the bottleneck network link. It can also determine if your performance is being limited due to normal network congestion (e.g., traffic between buildings). Finally 2 serious error conditions, Duplex Mismatch and Excessive cable errors, are looked for. This java applet was originally developed by ORNL and has been extensively modified at ANL. Each test takes about 10 seconds. Click on "start" to start tests.

Politics is supposed to be the second oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first.
