Bandwidth Speed Tests And Other Network Testing Tools

Many technical factors affect a person's or business's network performance. From the current workload, processing power and amount of memory on either end of the connection, to the protocols supported by the modem, to bottlenecks at intermediate devices or "hops," performance monitoring involves many variables. No one monitoring tool can fully capture all of these nuances.

So, the following.....although not a complete list by any means...are offered to help you find the right bandwidth testing tool to meet your specific needs. These cover such areas as speed test, line quality tests, packet loss, latency variability, bandwidth calculator, mobile speed, ping time, line monitoring, and much more.

TestMy.Net Accurate upload and download connection speed testing, with the ability to track your connection history. Though bandwidth testing is testmy.net's primary service they also offer many other internet related tools, such as traceroute, ping, whois, DNS query.

CNET Bandwidth Meter speed test

NetWorx Networx is a simple, yet powerful tool that helps you objectively evaluate your bandwidth situation. You can use it to collect bandwidth usage data and measure the speed of your Internet or any other network connection. NetWorx can help you identify possible sources of network problems, ensure that you do not exceed the bandwidth limits specified by your ISP, or track down suspicious network activity characteristic of Trojan horses and hacker attacks.
