I-Land Internet Services: DSL Speed Test

I-Land Bandwidth Speed Test

I-Land Bandwidth Tester

(Click on 'HS' for links over 1500 kbps, 'DSL' for all others)

*Note: This test will work for dial-up users, but it may take a few minutes to complete the test

What does this do? It benchmarks your download line speed. The test server is located at I-Land's facility. These tests work to line speeds of about 2000-6000kbps.

What should my download be? This greatly depends on what kind of connection you have. For example, if you have a 384kbps burstable to 768kbps down / 128kbps upload DSL connection, you could see anywhere from 0kbps to 700+kbps down, and 0kbps to 120+kbps up.

How do I test my upload speed? Since this testing program does not test your upload speed, you will need to test it in other ways. Probably the best way would be to upload a file using FTP to your home directory. To use FTP you will need to download an FTP program and read the programs help file for more information on how to use it. You can download FTP programs from our Tucows server at http://tucows.iland.net

Are there other tests I can use? There are many sites that provide a test of your download, and upload speeds. But, these tests are not on I-Land's local network, so your connection speed will be influenced by that sites connectivity. Below are some links to some other testing sites.
DSL Reports
MSN Speed Test
Bandwidthplace Speed Test

How can I make my connection faster? There are some "tweaks" that may help your connections performance. Some of these "tweaks" involve editing your registry. I-Land Internet Services will not provide support for systems damaged from modifying your registry. If you would like more information on this try http://www.dslreports.com/tweaks Please make sure and read all of the FAQ's about changing your systems configuration.
