JC,
What do you guys run for a local speed test? Have you created your own
web app or can you point me to something pre-packaged. We have been
using pcpitstop.com for a quick sanity check but as you said it has been
running like crap lately. Any help is appreciated.

PS: What
we have done is put in place a Cache Server which 98% of the time takes care
of most speed testing. Also it can actively cache those little websites
that are slow in loading making a T1 look like an OC-3. Since we have
done this life is a bit more quite right now.

That's why we specify in our
policies that any speed test to be done is
only valid if it is to OUR
speedtest on OUR website. We can't control the
bandwidth between us and 2Wire, or
DSLReports, or whoever they want
to test from this week. So we
state it up front. The internet is a volatile mesh
of comingled networks that are
owned by a myriad of companies that have
loyalties to no one. We guarantee
your speed and connectivity to our network
and that's it. Nobody out there
will give you anything better. If they do, take it.
Offer them this
choice...
Of course a phone call at 6AM
every day would drive me to the
point where I would say FINE.
Drive out there, test the bandwidth
show them that they are getting
AWESOME speed, then hand them
a bill for $65 for the truck
roll.

What
do you do when a customer refuses to listen, when they haven't had a single
timeout in 4 days and have 2mbit to the office all the time (sometimes
spiking to 5mbit) and they are still insisting on calling at 6 am to wine
that some Indian site isn't loading properly ? I MEAN JESUS DO I CONTROL THE
INTERNET?
