Re: [WISPA] speedtest
We host the Atlanta speedtest.net site. We also happen to be ranked 3rd in North America for download and 1st for upload. -Matt Ryan Langseth wrote: Travis, Yea, we actually host one of their public speedtest.net sites (Grand Forks ND), the only requirement from them is you have at least 40 mb upload. The most popular locations see a max of 10 mb/s usage, in bursts. You can also get some interesting reporting (IPs and speeds) from them when you host a site for them. With hosting their public one, its free. Ryan On Wed, 2007-08-22 at 14:19 -0600, Travis Johnson wrote: Hi, I recently found a very cool, fairly accurate web-based speed test program.

[WISPA] speedtest
Hi, I recently found a very cool, fairly accurate web-based speed test program. You can get a trial version off their website at speedtest.net.

[WISPA] Speedtest with BGP
OK.. So now that we are running BGP between multiple providers, we have noticed that none of the Internet speedtest are measuring results anywhere close. One of our circuits are 100MB and the other is 45MB. When running a speed test, it typically shows less than 2MB up or down. When I do a file transfer to an outside host, I can tell that I am getting great speed beyond what the speedtest will report Could this be due to the fact that traffic may route out one provider and back in the other? - Don -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Butch Evans Sent: Wednesday, February 07, 2007 9:12 PM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] BGP Question On Wed, 7 Feb 2007, Don Annas wrote: When peering with multiple providers, is it a requirement that you pick a primary to send and receive traffic or can you not prepend AS hops and allow traffic to arrive to you via the 'best' BGP route. There is no way to insure that traffic will come back to you on any particular interface/connection. Prepending is the best method to add to the probability that the other route will be used. It should be noted that it is possible that a BGP Peer will remove your prepended hops, however. -- Butch Evans Network Engineering and Security Consulting 573-276-2879 http://www.butchevans.com/ My calendar: http://tinyurl.com/y24ad6 Training Partners: http://tinyurl.com/smfkf Mikrotik Certified Consultant http://www.mikrotik.com/consultants.html -- WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/ -- No virus found in this incoming message.
