go to for this new network testing tool.
This is from the makers of speedtest.net.
It automatically selects the closest server. You can see more info from my results.

It's good for ping, but it doesn't measure bandwidth.

check this shit out bitches:
(im to lazy to printscreen)
packet lose: 0. duh. it better be 0 unless you are on dialup.
ping: 7 ms
jitter: 1 ms

did a speed test as well, just for kicks:
dl: 42 mb/s
ul: 53 mb/s
internal network ping: 2 ms
this is approximately 4 times the average isp evidently. however, this is only from the campus isp soo... anything on our network is stupidly fast.
