We mostly deal with business customer and guarantee bandwidth to
customers. We validate the bandwidth using IPERF from a Linux server off
of our BGP edge routers down to the customer and IPERF always shows the
customer getting the bandwidth they signed up for. We use QoS to
control bandwidth and make sure to not oversubscribe any one
link....small ratios of 3:1.
Of course eventually at some point the customer runs one of those stupid
bandwidth test on the Internet and the results are woefully inaccurate
(not in our favor)...but of course customers take the results as
gospel. AAARRRRGGGGHHHH!
It's not our internet connections, we have three 100Mbps BGP links and
none of them run at more then 50% during peak loads.
Has anyone else found those Internet speed test to be woefully
inaccurate? Or is something else going on that I'm missing?
Thanks,
Bret
