I have that speed test above, DOCSDIAG and also a batch file I created to ping my default gateway. One can easliy be made with the following line:
ping -t 67.xx.xx.xx (your default gateway IP)
I just typed that line in Notepad, named it pingdg.bat and saved it to my desktop.

Rocky, just multiply the kB/s X 8.192 to get your kb/s. (i.e. 1048kB/s = 8585.216kb/s)

How did you calulate the speed with the 64MB test file? ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Accuracy-of-speed-test-2733752 Tue, 12 Mar 2002 10:51:38 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Accuracy-of-speed-test-2733703 The argument over which test is best and what are my real speeds will go on forever.
Bottom line is only a handful of servers will allow 1MB downloads and there is really no difference between 5000 and 8500 in real world use of your cable connection.

Hooked up my SB4100 and got the firmware update hoping I was one of the lucky ones with the speeds since I'm behind a linksys router. I didn't get lucky this time.

Speeds with the SB4100 are running approx. 800kbs-1.01mbs with the OOL ftp test and speakeasy tests only 5000's/800's. If you do the math with the OOL ftp test I'm in 7000 to 8000kbs. There is a big difference between the speakeasy and OOL ftp speed tests with my SB4100. I know the speakeasy test is not accurate but can you explain the huge gap between the two? ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Accuracy-of-speed-test-2733397 Tue, 12 Mar 2002 09:55:50 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Accuracy-of-speed-test-2732651 FAST! and don't worry about the actual speed. Anything above 8mb is phenomenal.

As Steely said, if you get 1MB on the OOL FTP test, you're as good as it gets on OOL.

Have you tweaked your OOL connection?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Accuracy-of-speed-test-2732651 Tue, 12 Mar 2002 06:21:05 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Accuracy-of-speed-test-2732414 64MB test file from the OOL FTP server and note your transfer speed after 40% completion. That should give you a good indication of your maximum d/l speed in KB/sec.
