MyVitalAgent network monitoring software http://www.myvitalagent.com/ Lucent Worldwide Services http://www.lucent-networkcare.com/index.asp Score: 3 out of 3 Reviewer: Chris Kaminski Date: Apr 26, 2001 Price: Free download!! http://www.myvitalagent.com/ Runs on Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000 A couple of years ago, when I first got my cable modem, I downloaded a program called Net.Medic. This program allowed me to see what kind of traffic was going over my cable modem - graphically. I ran the software for quite a while on my main computer, fascinated by the real time kbps readings. Last week, I went looking for Net.Medic of software - I was curious if it had survived these last couple years. In that time Lucent seems to have purchased Net.Medic, renamed it MyVitalAgent, made a bunch of improvements, and made it freeware! The old Net.Medic charged a 'fee' to unlock some feature but this new version is fully functional and completely free. What it does: MyVitalAgent integrates itself deeply in the TCP/IP stack. Every bit of data travelling through TCP/IP shows up on the its screens. Graphic and text readouts display instant and average performance for specific internet application categories like Mail, Web, FTP and DNS. In addition to benchmarking your connection, this software tries to diagnose connection problems. It logs all failed connections - like when a web page does not come up - and tries to explain the problem. I found that it was pretty good determining where problems were in the connection. It at least lets you know if it is your problem, something on the internet, or the destination server. atleast you can find out,who is responsible for your woes as you try to get online at embarrassingly slow speeds,with a ridiculously poor average throughput,for you will be told that there is no problem,no body is having a problem etc: Is it yourself ? Is it your Hardware ? Is it your Software? Is it a line Problem ? or Could it be your ISP? For Example the following could be a report,like I had Diagnosis Application Name: Web Your attempt to connect to port 80 on the server at 64.4.20.24 failed. Prescription The server appears to be unavailable at the moment. This condition may be caused by a network problem or firewall between you and the server. First, make sure that you are trying to contact the right server and try again. If this condition persists, wait a short while and then try again. Many of the users of BSNL our ISP in Goa know what situation they are facing some in desperation have currently stopped using the net NO WONDER! Still, On the Internet!
