About Network Speed Test
Network Speed Test measures your network delay, download speed and upload speed. Using servers all over the world, Network Speed Test measures your network connection’s latency and throughput. Based on your connection’s speed, Network Speed Test will tell you what activities you might be able to do, such as stream music or video calls. Slide to the right to see a history of your previous tests for easy comparisons. When you test your network using the Network Speed Test, certain characteristics of your device and the network connection will be sent to Microsoft to help improve our understanding of network quality and availability. If you consent, we may also collect information about your location at the time of the test. The data we collect is not associated with you, and will not be used to identify or contact you or for other purposes like targeted marketing.

Cloudflare Speed Test
Cloudflare Speed Test is a tool that allows you to measure the speed and consistency of your connection to the Internet. You can use it to verify that the speed your ISP promised you is the speed you are getting, compare different ISPs or test network connectivity in different parts of your house. The measurements run on the Cloudflare network, which spans data centers in over 200+ cities worldwide. This ensures you are testing against a server that is close to you, which means you are measuring only the speed of your ISP, with minimal networks in between that may impact your score. There are many speed test tools out there. Our mission is to help build a better Internet. To do so, we believe in giving users a choice of different services, you shouldn’t be tied to one provider and you should be able to compare results across different tools. The test uses the Cloudflare anycast network to test network performance.

Speedtest Pro
Test your network directly from your toolbar and quickly test your internet performance. One-click testing of the Internet connection, and can reflect the user's network status from multiple angles. Speedtest Pro is a professional-grade speed tester, which can make it easy for users to find out the fault cause. Ping value could be measured and displayed in seconds. Test download speed and upload speed. Test the loading speed of the current web page. Open advanced options, you can choose to test the loading speed of the current web page or not. The time from the PC sends data to the webserver until it receives feedback from the server. It's usually expressed by the degree of network delay in online games. The larger the Ping value is, the more serious the network delay is, and the less smooth the game runs. Upstream traffic of network data per unit time. Ordinary broadband uplink and downlink are not equal, upstream broadband usually speeds limit.

Tessabyte Throughput Test
Tessabyte Throughput Test is an application for testing the performance of a wireless or wired network. This utility continuously sends TCP and UDP data streams across your network and computes important metrics, such as upstream and downstream throughput values, packet loss, and round-trip time, and displays the results in both numeric and chart formats. It supports both IPv4 and IPv6 connections and allows the user to evaluate network performance depending on the Quality of Service settings. In addition to this core functionality, the application can generate reports, conduct pre-scheduled tests, and allows payload customization.
Tessabyte can be used for capacity testing, link quality analysis, testing network congestion, WLAN performance evaluation, Quality of Service (QoS) assessment, firmware and hardware updates validation, network topology planning, comparative benchmarking, load balancing verification, SLA compliance verification, and hardware compatibility testing.
