I have grave difficulty trusting any measurement software that is not open sourced. I look over your website and it makes me really twitchy - I point people at validated tools like irtt and flent and there is no, there, there, over there... Please tell me you are measuring latency properly? I just took apart some data from someone else that foolishly let me see the code and ... pesky NDAs... they are a license to lie... I am never signing another NDA again so long as I can help it. Over here is a classic example of why measuring "average latency" is a function of the measurement interval. http://www.taht.net/~d/Misunderstanding_Residential_Bandwidth_Latency.pdf Radar is a fairly > extensible Pi-based (and mobile-app-based) measurement tool that enables > longitudinal data collection to document network reliability.
