Hard to find an app or appliance that will reliably show a customer the speed they are getting when it is above 100 Mbps. We have increasingly more 250, 500 and 1G customers and when they complain that speed test shows a lower number I need something to prove them wrong. An average laptop does not cut it.
We have installed our own speedtest server with the ookla recommended hardware etc. But it takes a pretty good computer that actually show a gig. Ditto iperf. Be nice if there was some kind of handheld device that could do this. There are all kinds of hand held computers designed to roll your own piece of test or control gear. Just not sure what is important. CPU speed Memory size PHY circuit Memory type I guess I should ask this question of ookla...
