As long as we're posting speed test sites - here's a deep one!

As long as we're posting speed test sites - here's a deep one!
This site has many tests, including speedtest, quality, and others. Test multiple times per setting and go with an average

Select a default test from the dropdown.
Select the country you want to test to/from.
Select the state/region to test.
Allow the Java to load. (You will need Java installed...)
Click "Click to Start test" in the upper-left corner of the graphic.
Marvel.

Try the other tests on the right sidebar. You will be amazed how much the quality test differs from the speedtest in most cases. It is a truer test metric.

There is a test limit of 10 test per day, per location. Once 24 hours has passed testing will become available again.

  3. Interesting- I get a "Plugin not supported message" when trying to run the tests from my Chromebox. I'll try my Windows tower later.
