1. These do not use secure login, so we recommend using a separate password, which you can manage in your Legacy Settings.
2. MSN 5/6/7/8 and WLM '09 work on Windows XP and Vista, but have issues logging in due to known incompatibilities with the HTTPS protocols between the server and the affected OSes and us being unable to tweak our setup to effectively support those systems. Refer to this guide for a fix.
3. MSN 7 supports receiving offline messages (OIMs), but can't send them to others.
4. Only 8.1.0178 and 8.5 are known to work; others might not.
5. While WLM 8 and '09 can work on Windows XP, they have some incompatibilities out of the box because of the way older systems handle SSL, as such, we recommend using a newer operating system or trying the same fix as MSN 5/6/7/8 (point 2)
6. MSN 1 only supports login on @hotmail.com, however simply enter your username without @escargot.chat and ignore the @hotmail.com part.

i also found this post who gets really close to useing wlm 11 https://wink.messengergeek.com/t/windows-live-messenger-2011-connect-to-local-server-is-this-possible/18540
but there is a forum called messenger geek and it has lots of helpful stuff

bro i always wanted something like that i use a dell optiplex 7050 micro as a beam ng drive server and as my gaming pc that was actually good

nice the oldest computer i had in the basement was a powermac G5 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_Mac_G5 and its the scary conductive watercooled one because for some reason they put the powersupply under the watercooling system and it would leak and corrode the while thing and since it was conductive it would short some how min hadn't leak

Hi Jose,
 
When I get a moment I'll add São Paulo for you. 

Maybe some subscribers like to learn aproximate pings from cities to cities.

Hello Testmy.net

Congradulations to have an Excellent Service.
 
Today we have thousands of Internet Speed Tests around the world with speeds up to 1000 Mbps.
 
10 (ten) GB Speed Test might be a good choice to install in São Paulo, Brazil because most of the population live in the South East. 

The climate is Brazil is between 26 and 30 ºC 
 
Ping from Sao Paulo to Santiago TMN server should be near 50 ms. 
 
TMN is excellent to test your Internet Service Provider and fans can enjoy ping test from you location on the following site
 
https://www.meter.net/tools/world-ping-test/ 
 
After Dial UP and ADSL Internet, my Internet in 2015 ( ten years ago ) was Internet Fiber with 60/3 Mbps.

Today we have more Internet Speed because of TV, YouTube and wireless devices. 

❤️

 
 
 
 

Well said.
 
TestMy.net started in 2001... but my first internet speed test became popular in 1996, on accident.  Was pretty crazy trying to run it early on, not knowing anything.  No real tools to even learn online yet either.
 
I hope one day more people find TestMy.net again.  I'll just keep building.

I was looking to see when Testmy.net started as I Swear (Even though my profile says 2009) I came across this site approx Sept or Oct of 2001 or 2002. I lost my login info and think I had to start over in 2009 as I know I used the site in 2005 as I was always testing the Internet at a club I did music for .
 
Back to the Title, Being a site for 5+ Years prior to speedtest why do you think they have more visitors (or considered #1 Site to test)? I have my opinion.
 
Also I have yet to have a ISP ever tell me to use this site though have had them argue with me about the results until I show the history and when the speed dropped as well as consistency in the results 
 
My Opinion, I think a lot of people do not like the facts or truth even if ignoring it is detrimental , Would rather have results that match what the ISP says and they pay, when they get the accurate results more than likely it is not what they want to or have seen, Plus when you go say something to say Xfinity or Other ISP's that you feel the sped is not what you pay for they want you to test where they know they will get a higher speed and it is hard to argue with that unless you have been doing this awhile and have had to deal with all the scripts they read that state it is on the customer end,  I can list things till my KB wears out
 
Honestly I think the only times I knew for sure it had to be either a Xfinity issue (Or 1 time iRacing Server issue) was thanks to be able to test here and use my history or results to compare with.
Sadly until they make a set of test parameters/Rules as far as Internet Speed Testing  a lot of people will be missing out on the bigger picture about  their connection speed.
I am just thankful we have Testmy.net as a tool to use as well as all the Time and $$ CA3LE has spent on the site

My first PC was a 486 with 40 MHz, Windows 3.11, CRT display, dial-up internet with US Robotics V90 modem. 
Take care

my old dell dementia got 1 Mbps on internet thats supposed to get 500 (it had a 10base-t ethernet card) i was like 5 using internet explorer 5

Funny how you mentioned yo do not play games back in 2008 I was building the armor plating for the MRAP (Mine resistant Ambush Protected) Vehicles The same Tan 4X4 Ones we left in Afghanistan they have shown on the news Moving those plates by hand I ended up rupturing a disc in lower back and smashed a nerve  disabling me so I was attempting to get a degree in Machine technology, doing CNC Programming on CNC Lathes and Mills but ended up realizing I could not stand for the 4+ Hours at a time needed to do that. anyway to make a Short story long I got a ASUS ROG G73 SW top of the line Gaming Laptop (Late 2010) yet never played a single game till 2019 when I came across iRacing LOL 

Over the decades I've always strived to have the fastest servers I can afford to host TestMy.net.  My journey with hosting has taken me into a colocated datacenter where I pay for cabinet space, power & internet connection and bring in my own equipment.
 
When I first started using colo I built everything out with brand new, current generation servers and networking gear.  Over the years I added servers and built up a High Availability Proxmox cluster.  Adding servers I found that eBay was definitely my friend.  Now I could afford servers that only a few years earlier often went for nearly 10X what I was able to get them for "off lease".  Each time I added a new server, it was more powerful than the previous.
 
Over this time I'm adding more resources, things are getting faster.  Even my first servers were full solid state, employing arrays of 4 Samsung 850 Pro SSDs.  But things really started flying with the advent of Optane storage.  A game changer... really, it was too good. (and now it's gone.)
 
Fast forward to 2024.  I get a generous donation of servers, the person doesn't care what I do with them, they're just happy to give them to me.  They're newer than my servers, 2nd version into the next generation of CPU.  So quite a bit newer.  I get one of them setup with the same Optane storage I run in my current master server and start benchmarking. 
 
It's not really faster and doesn't justify switching servers.  Sometimes it was slower.  I assume because my servers are higher clock speed, highest end of the CPU SKU.  Scratching my head, I really thought being so much newer I'd get a much better result.
 
I take the storage out and pop it in a gaming rig... another machine recently donated to me by a friend.  This PC happens to have hardware from the same year as the server I just tested.  I run the same tests and had to do a double take.  Not only was it faster on the gaming rig, it was WAY faster.  This made me reimagine my server topology.  Maybe it was time to build with consumer hardware.
 
Here I had a setup that was a fraction of the cost that was out performing in real world scenarios.  The better single thread performance and higher clock speed, faster memory... it all makes sense. There's more competition in the consumer market, things cost less.
 
So I sold those servers to someone who can better utilize their resources.  Extremely nice servers but for my use case here, they had too much of everything.
 
As soon as they were sold I ordered parts for my next build.  Promptly put it together and got to testing.  Minimum, 2.5x faster at everything.  Average is 3x faster and in some cases I've seen over 6x faster.  It has completely blown me away.
 
What is the magical setup?  Nothing much really, minus storage I think it cost my about $900, including a piKVM setup to remotely control the machine.  Much less than any of my used enterprise servers cost me.
 
Here's my build.
 
AMD Ryzen 7 9700X 8-Core, 16-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor G.SKILL Ripjaws S5 Series (Intel XMP 3.0) DDR5 RAM 64GB (2x32GB) 5600MT/s CL28-34-34-89 Optane 905p (zpool) and Samsung 960 Pro (OS) ASUS Prime B650-PLUS WiFi ID-COOLING IS-40-XT Black - 47mm Height Low Profile CPU Cooler EVGA 750 BP, 80+ Bronze 750W PSU Rosewill 2U Server Chassis RSV-Z2900U BTF-LIGHTING WS2812B 2PCs 19in Individually Addressable  2GB Raspberry pi4 Geekworm KVM-A8 (kit for building a piKVM) 10G network card  
It's only a 65 watt TDP CPU! very easy to cool in a constrained (or SFF) build like this.
 
A single half dollar sized CPU out performs all of my dual Xeon systems.

 
Yes, I can't run a terabyte of RAM with this setup but I don't need to.  My current systems are 128GB, I figure I only really really need 64GB with this CPU backing the system. 
 
Especially in single thread performance the new Ryzen system blows all my other systems away.  This type of gain will be felt everywhere, especially in mysql queries and responsiveness.  It still excels in multithread and even has a larger cache than my Xeons.  It really wins for me on every level.
 
And yes, RGB was a requirement.  I never put RGB in a computer, not really my thing.  But I figure this is a gaming PC at its core so for $13, why not.  I can control them in linux but it adds a bunch of unnecessary packages, I like my base PVE to be as simple as possible.  So default rainbow it is.

I haven't been necessarily doing it wrong all these years.  Without the low TDP and high performance of the 9700X this build would be more challenging.  These are recent developments.  There's basically zero redundancy in this server.  So, it also helps having a PVE cluster that has a bunch of reliable machines, to back up this consumer grade hardware.  
 
I can't wait to bring Lambo into production!

Hello from Studio B.
 
Today, in many places with 4 Mbps is still a Gift of Science and Amazing Grace.

My grandfather lived 19 years in Nevada without Internet. 

He faded away he dindn`t die on his mind.

Remember General Douglas MacCather? April 19, 1951.
 
'Old soldiers never die-they just fade away.'
 
From your neck of the woods I like "bring me back to life" by Evanescence from California and Southern Ghotic music. 
I belive Amy Lee have Symmetrical Internet like 1000/1000 Mbps. 
Bruce Lee might have died because of cerebral edema in 1973.
Peter Steele from Type O Negative, New York passed away but before he gave me is autoghaph and told me he was not a fan of Manowar. and rats can be a problem for Internet cables in NY. 

I think TMN tets with "multithread" on default mode is better for the majority of the people on earth to be happy.  

Optimum and Comcast Xfinity are my fovorite ISP in the USA.

Internet speed at 20km from my house and 10km from the company installations with the plan of 24 or 12/1 Mbps. 

The test was done from the most westerly place from europe, at a server 2000 Km away.

Wow!  You resurrected a 20 year-old topic!
 

 
Ahh the old days, when 4 Mbps was amazing.

We don´t have Internet symmetrical speeds
 
Many families still have ADSL
We are happy to have 100Mbps upstream

Therefore put a LIKE ❤️ 

Have a Good Day or Good Night with " Xutos e Pontapes " and " Diego Miranda " sound. 

We will be back another day

20 years after Madhopsman Post our Internet speed is 125 times faster than 4 Mbps with 500/100 Mbps fiber optic cables and GPON technology.

GPON technology, downstream/upstream speed - 2.5/1,25Mbps 
XG-PON - 10/2.5Gbps
XGS-PON - 10/10Gbps (symmetrical)
