Hi guys,

If I want to measure the throughput of my network, how do I do that?

Is there a way I can see in terms of x/second how fast data is travelling across a network?

Like a Measurement of speed?

Thanks

if you have xp they have a network monitor built in. Its in win 2k too obviously. They also have this software at

Do a hunt for a program called NetCPS there are tons of places to download this free proggy from. Very easy to setup and use.

OK I tried netCPS

The results were weird.

Using a crossover cable between win2k and win98SE. With only 2 protocols installed on both (TCP/IP and Netbeui).

Bear in mind that on the 98SE machine, Netbeui is set as the default protocol.

Results were approx: 10-10.5mbps (I think) and it (the test) took 9.34 seconds to transfer.

Is this slow?
