Hi Aqueum, Yeah, maybe I should put the forum more prominently in the menu. Used to be front and center. The new version is web based. I never want to require you to install anything, ever. I don't think it's necessary. Especially now, with the advancement of browser technologies, opening native APIs to the web. Web applications can now access the GPU directly, I mean come on. All I know, I have no problem working within the web's framework. The capabilities today blow me away. With the right software and internet connection you actually won't need any native applications in the future. Been developing heavily on it, performs really well on every device I've tested on. I'm getting close. It's powerful and I think it's pretty amazing what it can do. All with just a simple, light web application. With over a dozen options you'll be able to control and tinker with the way the test operates, altering the flow and rendering. I made the options for myself in testing, I was going to stick with what worked best. But I feel it's better to just let you control it all. With default recommended settings you can revert quick and easy but still have control to experiment however you'd like. There are some pretty powerful option combinations that can really kick your browser into overdrive. Since you voted on this topic, you'll be invited by email when I'm ready for you to try it. For now, my release version (2018) still does the job. Many of the tricks the new version uses were discovered in developing the current version. If you have the bandwidth, you should be able to show it with TestMy.net. TMN has the bandwidth and dozens of servers that do only one job. You just might have to coax it out by altering how the test pulls the data, by using multithread. First, I recommend testing under your new username. Run a few combined tests, then click the "multithread" toggle at the top of the screen (e.g. says 'Multithread off' in my screenshot). Run a few more tests, you may see improved results using this method because it combines multiple downloads and multiple servers together (the new version does this for both upload and download tests). Then go to mirrors (quickly select at the top of the screen by clicking "Testing [locale name]" e.g. CA3LE Testing Colorado Springs, CO) Repeat testing on a couple of mirrors to compare how you perform to different locations. I pull only 400-500 Mbps using TestMy.net's Linear (single thread, transferring a single file) method, 700-900+ when I multithread. Other's like @xs1 regularly pull over 800-900 Mbps here using Linear. He used to only be able to do that with multithread... then one day, POOF! It magically bumped up. TestMy.net's servers and software were the same, pretty sure his computer and network were the same... then, poof, it just worked better. A variable had to change somewhere. TestMy.net Test ID : xwB2N5GI9.Onniz66P7 My opinion since the beginning, the single thread Linear result is the one you want score high on. Comparing the two gives you deeper insight.
