Internet Speed Testers

Here’s a new one, sent to me by a guy using it way out the boonies and bitching that 4.7Mb up and down isn’t good enough.
It’s at internetfrog.net and returns a QoS reading.
If you really want to whine, use it. It returns shitty results no matter what.
Using speakeasy to Seattle i read 11 down and up
Using speedtest to Van I read 9.5 doan and 6.5 up
Using speedtest to Rupert I read 9.1 down and 1.2 up
Using internetfrog I got 1.4 down and 1.7 up, an 8% QoS rating and they list the first ping which is always shitty to give you more to complain about. Plus a testpage covered in ads for ‘better internet’ from 100 other companies…
I did all the tests in tabs, starting one, going to the next tab and starting it etc. so they all completed checks within 2 minutes of each other at 4pm a busy time.
Repeated the frog thing a few times and never read over 2.3 even though it was tied directly into a Telus fiber.

His computer loaded with spyware!or maybe…lol.doing a test while downloading!LMAO!

Actually the guy complaining was testing from his workstation, however thru a router that serves three offices and a 20 station computer lab.
But he says it was on a Sunday so it shouldn’t matter.
No one would have left an infected computer on, or running bit torrent. Yeah right…
