   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speedtest.net

   Speedtest. Speedtest.net, also known as Speedtest by Ookla, is a web service that provides free analysis of Internet access performance metrics, such as connection data rate and latency. It is the flagship product of Ookla, a web testing and network diagnostics company founded in 2006, and based in Seattle, Washington, United States. [5] [6]

3. ping (networking utility) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ping_(networking_utility)

   ping is a computer network administration software utility used to test the reachability of a host on an Internet Protocol (IP) network. It is available for virtually all operating systems that have networking capability, including most embedded network administration software. Ping measures the round-trip time for messages sent from the ...

4. MTR (software) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MTR_(software)

   My traceroute, originally named Matt's traceroute (MTR), is a computer program that combines the functions of the traceroute and ping programs in one network diagnostic tool. MTR probes routers on the route path by limiting the number of hops individual packets may traverse, and listening to responses of their expiry. It will regularly repeat ...

   This is a list of countries by Internet connection speed for average and median data transfer rates for Internet access by end-users. The difference between average and median speeds is the way individual measurements are aggregated.

6. Packet loss - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packet_loss

   Packet loss. Packet loss occurs when one or more packets of data travelling across a computer network fail to reach their destination. Packet loss is either caused by errors in data transmission, typically across wireless networks, [1] [2] or network congestion. [3] : 36 Packet loss is measured as a percentage of packets lost with respect to ...

7. Paping - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paping

   Paping (pronounced pah ping) is a computer network administration utility used to test the reachability of a host on an Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) network and to measure the time it takes to connect to a specified port. The name is a play on the word ping, another computer network administration utility. Because ICMP can be used to identify the ...

8. Latency (engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latency_(engineering)

   Latency (engineering) Latency, from a general point of view, is a time delay between the cause and the effect of some physical change in the system being observed. Lag, as it is known in gaming circles, refers to the latency between the input to a simulation and the visual or auditory response, often occurring because of network delay in online ...

9. Measuring network throughput - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measuring_network_throughput

   A typical method of performing a measurement is to transfer a 'large' file from one system to another system and measure the time required to complete the transfer or copy of the file. The throughput is then calculated by dividing the file size by the time to get the throughput in megabits, kilobits, or bits per second.
