CA3LE reacted to Jose Fernandes in CNET Pick TMN for Best Internet Speed Test for your Browser in November
Testmy.net
Best internet speed test for your browser
If you're looking to test your browser's internet speed, Testmy.net is your best bet. It runs entirely on HTML5 and PHP, meaning it doesn't require third-party software like Java or Flash to run your test, which can produce more accurate results. That also makes it a useful tool for comparing performance between different browsers. You can also create an account to track your internet speed for future reference or comparison.
It's not the most user-friendly tool, featuring a swath of in-depth data and individualized tests for your download speeds, uploads and latency. In other words, you'll have a lot of information to look through that might not be relevant to you. The design is also a little ugly by speed test standards. It takes a few clicks before you begin a test, which isn't as streamlined as other speed tests that feature big "Go" buttons as soon as you load the page.

CA3LE got a reaction from xs1 in Metior app issue on Android 15? No upload speed reported
Maybe contact that developer.
Easier to just use TestMy.net instead. Try the beta under My Settings.

You'll get this error if you run too many tests too quickly. It should be there... but not unless you hit the test more than you did.
It shouldn't happen on your first re-test like that. I was seeing it too, when combined test was used and re-test was quickly done. I made an adjustment and it now passes properly under that scenario.
Thanks for the heads up.

I'm not sure if this is a bug or something intentional, but had the following large pop-up during a test. I ran a combined linear test, which completed successfully. I enabled multithread, clicked "Re-test", closed the full screen pop-up ad and the after the first stage of the upload test appeared, it displayed the following large count down and asked me if I want to continue with the test, which then completed successfully
Edit: I ran a handful of further tests, including simultaneously on my mobile (different 4G connection), but didn't get this again.

Hello from Studio B
On my fiber optic and the PC also received the warning.
Good night.

CA3LE got a reaction from Jose Fernandes in Sorry, are you accepting any kind of donations ?
thank you!
And thank you to those who've made anonymous BTC donations! Very unexpected. You guys rule.

CA3LE reacted to Jose Fernandes in Sorry, are you accepting any kind of donations ?
Servers use electricity and need maintenance.
We also have donted 1 euro/dollar X 10 years.
I don´t smoke and did not take " COFFIN " vaccines.
15 minutes a day under the sun at 12H00 UTC is important and Vitamin D3.
Smile be happy and healthy.

No problem, me too.. yesterday was my anniversary.
Thank you, that's very kind of you to say that.
For those like yourself who would like to donate here's an easy form. :)
It just caught my eye for some reason. It stood out to me.

That's funny, I just happened to be looking at your account as you registered. -- you'd think it was the php logo that caught my attention but I actually only saw your username first.
I really appreciate that you want to donate. Over 10 years ago there was a link for donation, maybe I'll bring it back.
If you really want to help testmy.net... talk about it. Your word-of-mouth drives my engine.
Spreading the word is most valuable. If testmy.net helps you all I ask is that you talk about it, write about it, link to it or just continue to use it. You wanting to donate already means a lot to me.
Thank you! Hope to see you around here for a long time!

CA3LE got a reaction from Jose Fernandes in Downloading general test results
First, All of the the database results are from TestMy.net only.
There are also several ways you can programmatically extract the averages.
I'll use Comcast as an example but this works for locations as well.
Basic json of what you see rendered on Comcast's hoststats page
https://testmy.net/hoststats/comcast_cable?jsonout=1
CSV output to file
https://testmy.net/hoststats/comcast_cable?csvout=1
CSV output rendered in page
https://testmy.net/hoststats/comcast_cable?csvout=1&easycsv=1
You can also specify how far back and output the averages
https://testmy.net/hoststats/comcast_cable?csvout=2&monthsback=12&easycsv=1
Note for the output, I use pipes (e.g. " | ") as a separator. Below I'm adding line breaks to make it easier to read.
"April 2022","May 2022","June 2022","July 2022","August 2022","September 2022","October 2022","November 2022","December 2022","January 2023","February 2023","March 2023","April 2023","May 2023","June 2023","July 2023","August 2023","September 2023","October 2023","November 2023","December 2023","January 2024","February 2024","March 2024" |219.5,192.5,190.6,156.1,157,210.8,165.5,224,215.5,215.5,209.6,168.4,206.6,203.6,220.9,270.5,272.4,218.3,244.9,240.8,299.5,249.9,312.7,190.5 |9.9,17.4,15.2,16,14.6,17.7,37.1,16.5,13.6,15.6,17.7,17.1,18.6,14.2,21.3,22.1,22.9,24.2,27.8,34.1,28.1,25.7,26.7,22.9 |'NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL','NULL',95,92,89,92,123,107,91,114,104,75,119,81,127,79,78,106,82,76,97,89,95,194,71,61

You can make a simple program to CURL and parse that output, explode and then make arrays out of the data. Make sure you set a reasonable limit to how often you query or it will be seen as a threat.
And please share with others where you're getting your data. TMN is 100% word of mouth.

CA3LE got a reaction from Frank225 in Latency in the server in Nairobi, Kenya - Africa
I'll correct that, I didn't update the old My RT program with that mirror's information yet. Thanks for catching that.
That mirror is slightly different than the rest, not built into My Latency by default... unless you select that mirror, then you'll see the option. It was donated by WaveX ISP in Kenya, I own all of the other servers. Donated, but it's a full TMN server I maintain... first one. -- it also doesn't appear in the legacy multithread test right now.

CA3LE got a reaction from Frank225 in Project-Based Result Aggregation
You can kinda do that right now, by using identifiers.
Then take note of the date, later query the database for that date range to only pull the results theoretically from the one site. Maybe make a separate TMN account for these type of results.
I intend on making it much easier to organize in your situation by incorporating sub accounts. Which will help keep track of multiple overall scenarios. I like the name you just came up with, My Projects.
Bumping this up in my to-do list.

CA3LE got a reaction from Jose Fernandes in Jose Fernandes - Latency to Europe and Africa with Love.
You live in a very interesting location in the world.
When you search for the "western most part of Europe" in Google you find Cabo da Roca. But that's totally not true.
This rock, just off your island is the real western most part of Europe.
That rock, from what I can see... is the end of Europe.
Google Maps The Westernmost Point of Europe
I feel like you're getting extremely good speeds to that remote location.

CA3LE got a reaction from Frank225 in best speed test for me
Wow! You resurrected a 20 year-old topic!
Ahh the old days, when 4 Mbps was amazing.

CA3LE reacted to Frank225 in Dedicated Server, London.
Thank you very much for the information about your setup ( Bink Air Fibre ?) in your beautiful country of Wales .
I remember Shirley Bassey - Goldfinger and Tom Jones in the land of your fathers.
I mentioned 210 meters and wanted to say 210 km between the two dishes.
My internet is Fiber Optic FTTH, with speeds of 500/100 Mbps coming from the station connected to a submarine cable.
Your Latency 13ms and
Latency under load 16 ms and 15ms is excellent and more speed with the new dish.
I think 153/38 Mbps is more than enough.
I hope to see your TMN speedtests in the servers of | East Coast US, New York, USA | North America - Toronto, CA | Europe, London, GB |
Congratulations.

Welcome to the site RfrankNRTC, thanks for the input. I really appreciate it.
With the automatic test you can also set minimum and maximum sizes now. So now you have even more control over that stuff.
Keep visiting and please pass the word along.

Reading the speed between their server and your computer is not really testing the internet speed.
Doesn't matter how you connect. You're not testing the Internet if you don't actually go out to the Internet. Testing against your ISP's servers isn't going out to the Internet. That's why TestMy.net is here.
Your ISP has control over the quality of peering and bandwidth in and out of their network.
If your ISP is in the UK, then it should be a very quick hop over to my UK servers. As long as your ISP is delivering that won't affect the final result. There would be little to no difference if all the connections between are running with capacity available. Any good ISP in that scenario would have at least multiple 10 GbE peers, meaning that the route between the ISP and TestMy.net should never be the weakest link... unless it's over capacity.
It's a red flag if an ISP tells you that only testing against their server's is accurate. And like I said, it doesn't make sense in the first place. Your ISP's servers are not the Internet, that's your host's network... before the Internet. It's a part of the Internet but if that's your host, their network is your network. A step above your local area network but we're not really out to the wider Internet.
TestMy.net is actually testing your connection out to the Internet.

Hello
Steven WJ Richards.
I hope you are well
My internet communications 10 to 15 years ago was unique in two ways.
The first one was done with ISP two satelite dIshes link with 210 meters on 80 meters self supported towers for ADSL distribution.
The second was earth to satelite geostationary orbit, at 35,786 km (22,236 mi) in altitude above Earth's equator to earth for ADSL distribution.I never mesured the latency but was high. The internet speed was 4Mbps and we paid for 12 Mbps.
Your internet is from 4G ?
What is your internet speed?
What is the latency at TMN London Server (auto mode) ?
4G is better than ADSL.
Do you have sheep or goats in your paradise? and your antenna is safe from the animals ?
I am also testing with TMN and this was my last results and observation:
Today, the Amazon Latency test at TMN and Ookla Speedtest is similar for London. We don't know if Amazon have servers in the countries with Shopps/Stores-Business ?
All the tests below was done by wireless with ISP router and DNS. (5m from the router in a strait line)
With warm Wi-Fi 5 on Intel modem AC 20-160Mhz on the PC and the router with 160 MHz bandwidth channel, 1733 Mhz all the results should be a little bit better.
We factory reset the router 4 times a year.
We use TMN server in London for speed test because it is closer to my router
LINX LON1 - 195.66.224.91 - LINX LON2 - 195.66.236.91
I hope you answer my questions.
Kind regards.

Hello Frank, thank you for your comprehensive and informative reply, it is much appreciated. My internet connects to a radio transmitter tower across the Towy Valley about 2 miles away via a dish on my house. I am pleased to inform you that, since my last post, my internet provider has replaced the dish with an upgraded one. Here are my new speeds!!!
