Try a 1GB file at least.

I usually see 40-50 MB/S from *fast* servers.

This tiny file downloaded before I could get a transfer rate. Net per sec shows 40Mbps burst.

Cheers!

Thanks for the suggestion.

I've heard about H-Sphere, some hosts swear by it

How do you like it so far?

If you are using IE, you can make the d/l box not close automatically after it d/l a file, and it will display the time it took to d/l, and the speed.

The file is still way too small for testing faster speeds.

Typically for people with low speed connections (under 500kbps) a 10MB file will work. For people with broadband connections between 500kbps and 15Mbps, a 100MB file is good. For those with higher speed connections 500MB+ is necessary.

Another option is to host the visualware speedtest application and let people record their speeds.

Cheers!
