"Monit" will do the same thing , with services. Just gets me at how literally dis connected people are getting. Sorry man, but were not heading into a very individually productive directions here, overall. As a people. :shrugs:

Considering so many sites are pulling from even countless resources, your point is well taken. Day to day or minute by minute would be something a user gets a feel for after a time, for instance we get used to seeing a pageload depending n the site, at a certain speed, when there is an issue with one or more of the resources the site relies on, we notice that. This is where testmy.net can assist, by sector, what might be the issue. For instance if test results are all coming out low, this would lead us closer to home, or the ISP, if tests on servers one side of the country are low but not the other, this would lead us to a peering issue. Same for an overseas test.

Maybe I'm not understanding the question, as there would likely be millions if not hundreds of millions of points. Could you refine your question a little? Thanks.

Welcome to testmy.net Hepick

What is happening there, users are placed in order of how many tests have been taken and how high or not their score is. For instance, I could test and get a score between 500-750Mbps, from one tests, and I would be placed towards the top if not the top, however after someone else gets results of 300 Mbps several times, they will overtake my placement. I did not write it, but it appears to be weighted on the two or three factors in some manner, @CA3LE would be the person to get details from , and straighten out my understanding as well.

Actually it's the inverse. The result you get at testmy.net will correlate along side the performance you will see when accessing data in the same area as the test is run.

Test results will vary organically. Considering the net is made up of many branches, peering of the ISP and peers, availability of resources depending on time of day, broader usage (popularity), more or less the network density at the time the test is taken. And likely several million other possible reasons.

@dluds10 Is it possible to stop using the USB wifi and get a direct cable connection to the modem?

I've got boxes running several places, a few in production and quite a few in residential applications. Rarely, as in hardly ever any more does one of them complain. The more you do with them they more you'll want to do. One of them had an uptime of around 10 months until recently when I ran the 2.3 RC version on it. The local box is still running the nightly, I should get that up to date.

Yea, sounds as if you are a real wizard, that's bad a$$! I know this because you were admining with telnet, yes? Hate to be so nitpicky, and I'm certain you already know this, but freeBSD is not linux, it is a full operating system not just a kernel. (just doing my part to correct the lingo lol) I tried m0n0wall before pfSense, just didn't dig it for one reason or another. Same developers though right?

pfSense is to the point of replacing Cisco equipment in rather large production sites. As you should well know. Before I started with it, I relied on whatever tomato or DD-wrt had going for it, not downplaying them, just required a bit more. Now I use it in three production environments myself, I'm a bit concerned though to be honest, it does it's job so well, I've come to rely on it. Top notch stuff! Been running the nightly since 2.3 was at night lol

Say what? @xs1, whoa, now, I'm here to say whats up! looong time. Hope things are well.

We are happy to announce the release of pfSense® software version 2.3! The most significant changes in this release are a rewrite of the webGUI utilizing Bootstrap, and the underlying system, including the base system and kernel, being converted entirely to FreeBSD pkg. The pkg conversion enables us to update pieces of the system individually going forward, rather than the monolithic updates of the past. The webGUI rewrite brings a new responsive look and feel to pfSense requiring a minimum of resizing or scrolling on a wide range of devices from desktop to mobile phones. For the highlights, check out the Features and Highlights video. Past blog posts have covered some of the changes, such as the performance improvements from tryforward, and the webGUI update. The full list of changes is on the 2.3 New Features and Changes page. To get to a release, we’ve closed 760 total tickets. While the majority of these were related to the Bootstrap conversion, 137 are fixed bugs impacting 2.2.6 and earlier releases. Source He doesn't really wake up and realise he's doing a video until around the 2:15 mark; fyi People, check it out, start a VM locally and have at it. Run the live version, just have a look at what this thing can do for you and your control over what comes in and what does not. Good stuff!

What is it that you seek suggestions about range a extender?

I do not normally post something like this, but it's a great thing, which we actually need to continue developing. Based on Webkit (the root of all things future browser) if your not familiar, this is a great time to find out. Here are the Install instructions for various platforms At any rate, if you've got 6 bucks laying around to donate (or 6000 bucks), you would be doing yourself and community a very real solid. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/qutebrowser-a-keyboard-focused-vim-like-browser#/

So I'm no spring chikkin' ok, and maybe I'm behind 'the times' a bit, such as the times of actually thinking, maybe I should stoppit. because there is no [thought] in my head that can account for such a device, none. No wait, nope , nothing. Please, buy here and support these completely broke manufacturers. Are you kidding me? Look at what the claims of this 'thing' are: Eliminates media stream buffering Hands-free internet reset Less internet downtime Reset occurs at programmed time Wait , so it claims after a power failure, but resets at programmed times, does this mean power is set to fail at pre set times as well? Duh-me, just duh. But hey, $50 bucks and this gem can be yours. Unless your of the mind and age that you simply cannot unplug, then plug something in, even then, if you can't do that, how the hell are you on the interwebz to begin with? Your help me button goes through the net? Ok, there it is. But this should be free to people in that condition, as well as included in the help me I've fallen hardware.

Found an issue in the BSD config not leasing IP's to certain macIDs, though no explanation yet. Went with a backup which cleared it up. Not sure if I care to delve into why the link was removed from the desktop on windows 10 though, some sorcery there

Today the workstation throws the 'one or more network protocols are missing' errors. Which seemingly has to viable solution let alone public reason. That I have found. Uninstalled the network card through device manager, rebooted and instead of having to hit up the new hardware wizard, when the machine is booted, the card is already installed and configured. Of course still no network access, claiming unidentified network, much as ms server might do if something was changed. Though nothing has been changed here.

Just one link, not all icons. A link to a local resource has 'vanished' on a windows 10 desktop. Not only, any attempts to contact said resource is futile. Ping, tracert, manual entry, null. Checked hosts file, restored a backup of the hostfile, reboot, still nothing. All other resources on that subnet are accessible. The resource in question is accessible from other workstations, on the same subnet or not {intentional routing} as expected. My first thought was virus, but makes no sense. Second thought was something in windows 10 was triggered by user input. Checked in the browsers list of blocked sites, nothing. [edit] Cannot access the IP/ resource from any other account on said machine Thoughts?

Thought Id share this with you all. For those of you who care to visualize system data on the fly in real time. From CPU to each nic, virtual or not, bridges ect, interrupts, disk write/reads, it's all there. https://github.com/firehol/netdata http://netdata.firehol.org/ WITH the proper licenses!

I like the collaboration of the two for public use that has been growing, i's a gold thing for the evolution itself. However, overall there is quite a bit that raises the eyebrow. This all appears no more than means to end Linux altogether as an open source code dump, by microsoft. ------------ The ‘new’ Microsoft is not new. It’s the same old Microsoft — the company that committed crimes to get where it is today. The SCO case makes a return to some headlines, not just in FOSS sites but also in general (but technology-centric) news sites. Groklaw is still uploading new documents [PDF] and FOSS Force wrote: “Judge David Nuffer with the US District Court in Utah gave SCO another day in court last week and returned a judgement against the bankrupt company.” The Register wrote: “The SCO Group has suffered another reversal in its long-running attempt to squeeze some cash out of IBM for allegedly pinching its code and tossing it into Linux and maybe AIX too.” Remember that this is a Microsoft-funded (in least in part) attack on Linux. It’s over a decade old. It’s nearly 13 years in the making. As Larry Goldfarb from BayStar, a key investor in SCO, once put it: “Microsoft wished to promote SCO and its pending lawsuit against IBM and the Linux operating system. But Microsoft did not want to be seen as attacking IBM or Linux.” Yes, Microsoft loves to hide between or behind proxies, otherwise it might jeopardise the lie which is “Microsoft loves Linux.” It might make it harder for Microsoft to seduce fools into Azure for GNU/Linux hosting. When it comes to patents too, there are Microsoft-connected FRAND lobbyists, as we last noted yesterday, on the same day that WIPR wrote: “Companies that own standard-essential patents (SEPs) must stick to their obligation of licensing them on fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory (FRAND) terms, the EU commissioner for competition has said.” The commissioner ought to have mentioned the problems that SEPs FRAND in its own right poses. It’s incompatible with Free/Open Source software (FOSS), and not by accident. There are standard-essential patents where interoperability between file systems is required. See the Samba case (in Europe, where Microsoft fought for file sharing monopoly) and then recall the Microsoft v. TomTom case, where Microsoft fought for a software patents tax in Europe (where such patents are not even legal), impacting Linux itself. FRAND is a vehicle for pushing software patents into Europe and Microsoft loves FRAND for this reason. Remember when Microsoft did this kind of FRAND lobbying with the BSA. Right now, after Alice, Microsoft is still utilising software patents in an effort to tax everything, exploiting its monopoly to make the tax inescapable. The ‘new’ Microsoft is extorting Android and Linux using software patents on file systems, still (probably exFAT if not FAT also, as per the TomTom case). This new article from WIPR states: “Microsoft has signed a patent licensing deal with action camera maker GoPro. “According to statement from Microsoft on Friday, February 5, the agreement covers “certain file storage and other system technologies”. “The terms of the deal, in which Microsoft is the licensor, have been kept confidential. GoPro, based on its own Web site, uses a lot of FOSS, Linux included (and Android is a key target platform). So what we see here is Microsoft engaging in patent extortion against FOSS, yet again.

Or better yet, just get butt-rapped by a former caged spider monkey who was fed nothing other than raw meat and ***** slapped hourly while being forced to watch re-runs of Maude for ten years.

Testmy.net will show you the burst values, check the graph after each test, look at the beginning of the graph, to the left, the spike if constant is the burst rate. https://testmy.net/quickstats/bender716 Click the testID or 'TID" to view a graph of each test taken.

The 'other' results you are seeing in your profile, are your results prior to signing up. I do see a windows OS used, are you dual booting your mac?
