Great representation!

Makes total sense. When that was originally designed I believe it was intended on being used hourly. More frequent intervals came later. I intend on building in more javascript logic on that page so that the automatic speed test selection is more intuitive. You'll instead select the frequency and then how many hours or days you'd like the test to run for. It will be quicker and easier for me to just build a new javascript UI that makes the calculations and enters the correct values than to re-work the actual program itself. Always keep in mind that most things here are customizable if you know the right tricks. The auto test for instance, if you want it to run a specific number that's not listed in the interface you can alter the URL in your browser. ... start an auto test with any number selected, then copy the url in your browser and end the test. see the xtimes=12 ... change that to whatever number you want. Then paste it back in your browser to start the test. You can just alter the URL in the browser but if you don't stop the test first your test count will be slightly off. If you use the same parameters all the time just have the URL in a txt file on your desktop or bookmark it. Also added 2-99 for you in the interface. Very quick and easy to do. We'll just let your browser generate those fields in for me. $deferJS .= ' <script> $(function(){ var $select = $(".1-100"); var selectedVar = ""; for (i=2;i<=99;i++){'; if(is_numeric($xtimes)){ $deferJS .= ' if(i == '.$xtimes.'){ selectedVar = \' selected="selected"\'; }else{ selectedVar = ""; }'; } $deferJS .= ' $select.append($("<option"+selectedVar+"></option>").val(i).html(i+"'.$timesPrintVar1.'")); } }); </script>';

I was developing something earlier and made a mistake... it was supposed to do the queries on the development database server but I mistyped the IP address... used the production address by accident ?. Sorry about that... They were super heavy queries and ended up locking up transactions on the 40 core master DB server. Sorry about that, my bad. It's now working off the 32 core slave so those operations are separated from the master and won't affect your testing or other database operations using TMN.

The Hourly Average tool has been converted to also average Date/Day, Day of Week, Month and Year and has been renamed My Average. Averaging speed test results by hour, day, day of week, month and year can help you pinpoint slow times. Members with long TestMy.net history can aggregate all the way back to their original results. So you can see how your speed has improved (or not) over the years. myaverage?hostQ=&dateFull=&q=CA3LE&var=Year Hope you like it.

Selecting "My" results via Identifiers and dates

You're welcome! I'll start explaining with videos like that more often. Cool, I'll look you up. -
New version of speed test - Flashing Graphics are a downside
CA3LE replied to kbjshop's topic in General Discussion
Ouch. I hear you though. And others may want to disable it for other reasons. I've added an option for you to disable the logo %. Look in My Settings on the new version. I know that I can't make everyone happy. But I really try to. -
how can I check the data transfer capabilities of my Laptop
CA3LE replied to DESAND's topic in Networking and Hardware
Edison won many battles against Tesla but Tesla and Westinghouse won the AC/DC war. Came down to distribution. AC can travel much further distance. Tesla wasn't really understood during his own time. Can't really blame people for thinking he was out of his mind. He did after all have a pigeon as a girlfriend. Edison was an invention thief... he found geniuses like Tesla, patented their inventions and called them his own. "Hey, you were getting a paycheck from me while you came up with that invention... patent filed -- now it's MINE!" --- he ripped off and ruined lot of real inventors --- Tesla > Edison. He was so advanced that it's taken over 100 years for us to finally appreciate some of his inventions. It may take us even longer to understand some of his other ideas. ... I can see DC playing a larger role in the future. Tesla vs Edison: the AC/DC current wars make a comeback -- We waste a lot of energy (in the form of heat) converting AC to DC right now (think about all of your power bricks), a DC powered home would be more efficient -- but it was AC that made it available for the masses in the first place. -

CA3LE replied to DESAND's topic in Networking and Hardware
reading that over again, reminds me of Tesla vs. Edison ... Edison wanted DC which would have put power plants on every corner. Tesla was all about AC... we all know what happened there. Edison killed a bunch of elephants using AC power and still lost because nobody wants power stations on every corner. Just like nobody wants wifi units on every corner. ...just like AC vs DC... I don't think we need them on every corner. Wasted resources, as humans, we can do it smarter. -
Selecting "My" results via Identifiers and dates
CA3LE replied to Pahoo Katawah's topic in General Discussion
The location information is for general reference, you won't be detected perfectly 100% of the time. IP location data I use is about 86% accurate at detecting cities in the US within a 30 mile radius. As you're scrolling through your results you'll see icons next to the date indicating any identifiers logged with the result. You can then select identifiers from the drop down on the right, above the result details. Here's a video, let me know if this helps. -
Remember, they are your Internet Service Provider... not local area network provider. Measuring your speed to their servers doesn't tell you much about how they're delivering your Internet. TestMy.net is the only test results you need to present them with. Also, because you're a member TMN has been tracking your response time (ping) in the background. Pahoo Katawah Response Time That looks really good actually. Ping isn't always an indicator. TestMy.net is testing between the client and server. The client being your machine. The route the connection must take to do that has it running right through your providers connections. Not just testing between the server and your ISP. Between you and the server and everything between.

No problem ?

By default it's showing you everything logged under your username, aggregated into hourly averages. If you select 'Date Range' you can query specific days or a range of days. Let me know if this helps.

Awesome! Thank you Ken Colburn from Data Doctors. https://www.abc15.com/news/let-joe-know/paying-for-fast-speeds-why-is-your-computer-so-slow Another great article at KTAR - http://ktar.com/story/2530346/why-is-my-internet-slow-even-though-the-speed-test-says-it-is-fast/

TMN helps me convince my isp their provided equipment was faulty
CA3LE replied to DESAND's topic in General Discussion
Was re-reading this... Don't you love how they fish for the result that plays into their narrative. It's not the tech's fault, they're just doing what they're trained to do. Use the company's speed test ...and others that play into the same narrative. It didn't used to be this way. ? -

Hey Denny! Not at all, I think it looks awesome, even more so because you've been visiting that long. I'm flattered. Thank you!! Thank you so much for the support and words of encouragement. Sometimes it can be a little discouraging, feels like only a small percentage of people understand the actual difference TMN has to offer. I used to be okay with, "some get it, some --won't." --- but really, it's my job to make it more attention grabbing and understandable. If people aren't getting it yet, I need to do a better job yet of presenting and explaining my program. Funny how many times I've heard that over the decades... yet the people telling me those stories continue to visit, often for many, many years. You for instance, continue to visit for over 10 years after being told TMN is "flawed". You obviously called them on their bullsh*t right away. ? Truly, TMN is a puzzle I can never complete. Right now, even with a new version out... it's not even close to the design and functionality I've had in my head all of these years. One day I'll get it all on paper. (it's funny how far away I am, like pull your hair out -- insanity kind of funny. But I love it.) -- what makes it especially fun to me is knowing people find my creation useful. Thank you so much for spreading the word all these years, I always appreciate your patronage and support! ... okay fine, I'll add the donation button somewhere people can actually see it. Pinned this topic too. Thanks for going the extra mile to find this topic. -- I hope to see you around here for 10 more years and beyond! -
Bufferbloat! (latency under load)
CA3LE replied to sourcejedi's topic in Ideas to make testmy.net better?
Many more updates planned. Bufferbloat is really high on the list. I'll get crackin' on that for you real soon. Parts of that have already been built. Thank you for the great suggestion, keep 'em coming. ? -
by the way, the option totally disappears on older browsers. Definitely a detection issue on my end. Thanks for posting that response back, helps a lot! I made a modification, should show as it did before. -- so you've tested using v19 in that browser a bunch and haven't had any problems?
-
... and the new CMP is still being revised, wasn't ready yet. Be done very soon.
-
... actually, just disabled it on the old version. Unnecessary.
-
Using your Firefox Mobile browser, please visit https://testmy.net/working/index_test-browser.php and paste back the server's response. Just switched on the new TMN EU CMP (consent management platform) please let me know how it works on your end. It will remove that annoying privacy settings link at the bottom. Already enabled on version 19 just need to enable it on the old version too.

Thank you ?

September 23rd 2012 ... that was the last time I emailed all of my members. Development on TestMy.net is not always visible to my users. Some of the most critical updates aren't always apparent. I only email you if changes are significant and outward enough for you to notice. A major update to TestMy.net has been released. All of the new features were requested by our members. Redesigned, responsive theme. One design, all modern browsers, all resolutions. Upload Speed Test progress PWA with offline capabilities makes the auto speed test recoverable when your connection dies Hourly Average Tool aggregates and plots your speeds hour by hour and gives you the ability to aggregate your results by host Hourly Averages help illustrate connection issues by time of day. Different clients, different parts of the world, testing different data centers... similar results. Common patterns like this are emerging with this new tool. Database date range functionality with date picker for easier deep database analysis More detailed host, city and country stats showing daily and monthly averages Enabling Multithread is quicker and easier automatically selecting your last server choice Advanced emailing options Dark Mode! See "My Settings" in the footer I've been developing this update and its prerequisites for over two years. Some functionality of this version wasn't even built into most browsers just one year ago. Compatibility is always important at TestMy.net so this update includes fallbacks for older browsers. If your browser is too old to take advantage of the new programming you'll see the old version. If you experience any issues or feel that your browser version needs to be added to the fallback list please contact me, then toggle the old version in the footer on the homepage. If TestMy.net helps you understand the internet connections you're paying for, please share it with your friends. - Damon aka CA3LE - TestMy.net
