Recommended Tests

thats funny unless theres something wrong with the site, i clicked the link to verify the speeds etc, came up with nothing. and i searched your username, and found nothing.

like i said, it could be an error with the site. not to mention i have never seen a cable connection go @ 8mbit from AU, especially a telstra cable connection, only dedicated leased lines!!!

It's very real . In fact my connection goes faster. That's from an international mirror. Give me a local mirror and watch the speed! .

Test run on 11/4/2005 @ 8:19 P.M.

Mirror: Optus
Test type: Cable

Your connection speed:

Kbps: 8789.3
kB/s: 1098.6625
Mbps: 8.58330078125

From http://members.optusnet.com.au/djalexm/speedtest/tools_speed.shtml using the Optus mirror in Sydney.

Update: Btw, it seems the record is working now, the database was being transfered from the old server to a new server.

Lol. Something went wrong there :p. Max speed is 10 Mbps on Bigpond Cable.

We say the 11th of April 2005 here in Australia.

I think you say April the 11th, 2005.

Hence 11/4/2005 .

I just ran the test again:

Test run on 12/4/2005 @ 1:34 A.M.

Mirror: Optus
Test type: Cable

Your connection speed:

Kbps: 8909.6
kB/s: 1113.7
Mbps: 8.70078125

Oh! haha :p. Thought it made you sound a tad dumb :p.

lol. Do the test again.. lucky you .

I am locaed in Australian, Adelaide and I am on the Telstra Bigpond Unlimited Plan, and this is what I get from the 12 M down test. I wonder what I will get from the 20 M test? Any know where it is located?

Van Buren's mirror also has the larger test .Just select download test at the top then test mirrors.
Heres the link

 REV0LUTI0NIZED  so is Australia where ITALIAN_GUY_22 is located .Several of the mirrors have the 20.5 MB test.I just thought he might like to try the one in Sweden.FallowEarth gave a USA link.

Wow, Van have you done some tweaking to your system Because I just did some test's and got some good scores out of my 9Mbps cap and it's overseas.

Cool. Since I use to get only 4Mbps, when I tested on you server.

hey nguyenlol and welcome to the forum

thats very nice score overseas, is that cable or DSL?

VanBuren

adsl is alot harder to tweak then cable, but i can see your very close to optimal settings now

a good value to use for calculating is 150 to 300 ms for all connections, in my version 7 of my tweaks i choosed to set TcpWindowSize and GlobalMaxTcpwindowsize to 44 x MSS thats 64240 for a MTU of 1500.

that seems to work very well.

I dont know what version of my tweaks your using, but i suggest you test the OOL 10000 / 1000 file and only adjust DefaultReceiveWindow. As a tumb rule it should be 1024 x your cap in kB/s

for you thats (12000 / 8 ) x 1024 = 1536000

thats a very large RWIN, and if you have packetloss your speed will be very inconsistant.

when i had a 10 Mbps cap i was using 384000 and that was optimal for me, you can try that aswell.

for determing the latency, look here http://thegamer.serveftp.com/FAQ.htm

but its many times better just to test, the measurment of a latency is almost impossible.
