Anyone out there who have a speedtest we can run of our local webserver to let the radio clients test locally in the network, instead of testing over the internet?   Regards Oleb   -----Original Message----- From: Brendan O'Bra [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 23. august 2003 06:36 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [smartBridges] What do you do I just have to chime in with an "Amen".  Most speed tests are popular and therefore bogged down lately.  The last couple of weeks with all the virus/trojan/dos crap have been especially bad - and have directly effected throughput ----- Original Message ----- From: Kevin Summers To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 22, 2003 9:24 PM Subject: RE: [smartBridges] What do you do 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...   - Cheap - Fast - Reliable   Pick two.   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.   Then enjoy sleeping in..
