You can now test your internet speed against TestMy's Amsterdam, Netherlands server.

Visit http://eu.testmy.net to change your default server to Amsterdam, Netherlands and give it a try.

Here's my score... all the way from Phoenix, Arizona ... about 5400 miles away.



Enjoy!

Blessings Ca3le , Amsterdam ? about 230 miles straight line ,but it does involve the English Channel hop ,
Test result close on right for me ,

BTW "Our most popular visiting European countries are... United Kingdom," I still spread the word ,

Odd. Seems like my server gets destroyed by internet speeds when testing to EU or DC.

Yet speedtest shows I have a perfectly fine connection. This seems fairly odd. Testmy.net shows me at 12%-22% of the Speedtest speeds for download, and at up to 25% of the speeds for upload. I am kind of curious why this is happening.

Also, a side note: When doing an Automatic Speed Test I can select the Amsterdam, Netherlands server, but when doing a standard test I cannot. (http://testmy.net/in...-speed-test.php vs. http://testmy.net/auto)

Thanks,

I'd look into that... the program is just calling it how it sees it. For some reason you're not getting a clean connection to those locations. Funny that you got a better connection to Amsterdam than Washington D.C.

I corrected the selection on that page. Thanks.

My connection to Amsterdam is a hit and miss...


it's a miss right now.

At the same time, from DC to Netherlands


We've got congested international routes. Hopefully one day it will be better.

CA3LE I see in the first test the host is cox and in the second softlayer. Makes sense to me since SoftLayer has the best routing in the world and Cox can't even come close to competing with it. Or did I miss something?

Yeah, one was tested from the DC server the other was my home connection. But even from DC to Amsterdam there is a major drop. Ocean bottleneck... two words that rarely meet.

Now you are telling me ? "Ocean bottleneck... two words that rarely meet."
been seeing that for 7 years, Amsterdam ( Netherlands ) still involves a sea crossing for me from the UK
m,ybe the sharks are chewing on the fibre ?

i think you may be onto something here... my speeds to the eu server are very erratic aswell

[RTB]

Can't believe I missed this thread. I will test your server CA3LE, mark my words.

I have been beating the hell out of it , spot on for me ,
truly a great TMN service for us in Europe ,
just going to post a link on my (member ) uk forum , "DSL.zone", has it's own members only test,
but just download ,) and they have no objections to links to other test sites ,
the infamous "speed test .net" is pants , along side other UK test sites , I can get 50% above my synch rate on some ,
the only usable one is Numion , again based in the Netherlands, an odd test but good for real world surfing ,
just saying, no spam intended , and no link from me , google if you wish ,

I noticed there is a west server now to. I also noticed when I manually chose the size it always appears to go to the texas server. Is that by design? Is there anyway to do a 200MB test on any of the other servers or what size until it forces you to texas?

i don't think he has the WA server fully configured yet he probably mirror'd the files from dallas to it hence the issue he just had a baby so hes kind of tied up atm
