I get quite a few emails from people in the UK complaining about the speed of their UK broadband connection and wondering if its performing as its been advertised, so I thought this would be worthy of a front page post.

Daniel Elwell has made probably one of the best speed test applications currently available and will test all aspects of your connection, Its not like most of the UK speed testers which as most of you living there are already aware can be pretty abysmal.

Program details are as follows.
<table cellspacing=1 cellpadding=4 bgcolor=silver><tr><td bgcolor=#6F8AA8><span style="color:black; background-color: transparent;"><span class=small>quote:
</span>The Broadband Speed Test is a free Windows application which you may download to test your UK based Broadband connection. The test is accurate and concise and will produce a results report which can be used to send to your ISP if you are experiencing problems.
The test differs from other Broadband Speed Testers in that it is completely designed for UK Broadband connections from Telewest Broadband, ntl:, BT Openworld and TELE2 Wireless. The test has the following features:

*Test ping response times to major servers
*Tests download speeds
*Tests Cache page-request time
*Produces Trace Routes
*Retrieves IPConfig settings

<i>New features available in V2.81 are as follows.</i>

*Save and Print functions added to the Results Window, to aid retrieving the results from the Speed Test.
*The Speed Test now detects your Webcache (if your ISP transparently caches you).
*Now supports Pipex ADSL Broadband Connections.</span></td></tr></table>

So go try it now and check that you are indeed getting the performance and speeds your ISP is quoting you --- its a really professionally developed tool that works exceptionally well. If you are feeling generous drop the author a pound or two, so he can continue development.

In order to perform ping test, i visit this site LINK REMOVED.
It has the best information of IP address, IP address to domain, domain name to IP,domain name, hosting, and ping test to know the particular connection is online or not!!!!!

We are not going to host any site that may or may not acquire peoples ISP address.So the link has been removed.

Secondly this thread were deemed dead 8 years ago and has been closed.
