Excellent Internet quality testing tool

[Sapphiron]

I found an excellent internet quality testing tool

In addition to testing throughput, it also tests the latency as well as the latency under download and upload loads (bufferbloat)

Probably the best way to establish to "quality" of the internet connection's consistency and responsiveness.

@Jan , time to update your speedtest utility to sort out the ok from the excellent providers.

I scored an F.

ADSL?

It generally performs very poorly under load

On supersonic LTE with an edge router and SQM enabled + some other settings. Router is actually important fixing bufferbloat.

The quickest route to fixing bufferbloat is buying a router with a fast CPU and a great Smart Queue Management implementation.

Thanks I normally use the dslreports.com test for bufferbloat, but Ill play around with this.

Decent result...

I prefer this over DSL reports, as they have some local testing servers.

Regarding the Router's role, I think this is something @Jan can run a piece on, as many routers have a Smart Queues feature that will greatly improve people's Internet experience with equipment they already have.

On top of that, once the router is correctly configured, different LTE services can be better compared

Looking good, +0 under load!

Not great as you can see! I am running MTN LTE via a Huawei B618 router.

sticking with nperf.com , thanks

Scored an F using RAIN. Checked the router and don't see any SQM features. Bah humbug.

 

[Brian_G]

Scored a C using ADSL with MWEB, not too bad then.

 

[Sapphiron]

ISP?

Interworks on Openserve fibre. Using mikrotik CCR with SFQ rule set to about 95% of line speed.

 

[ghostRgg]

Seems to be quite a browser dependant test like all of them are. Ran it in Chrome and got a C, ran it in edge and got an A+

 

[Thugscub]

I got 30%.

 

[Drifter]

Got an A using chrome

Got an A using chrome

Yeah going to re-do I think my chrome has way too many systems and addons enabled bloating it up.

router?

Untangle firewall with i5 16gb ram .

Thanks for the tip!

Did now the same for the office Mikrotik. Now getting A+ across the board. Will see if anyone notices improvements in Zoom calls tomorrow
