E4200 Internet Speed Test

I have slow internet speed with certain websites so I tried running a internet speed test with Cisco Connect version 3 with my E4200 router. It did not run, but responded with a "website not found" message. How can I correct this? Is this an indication that something else is wrong?

Hi! Do you have an updated firmware on that router? Based on my readings, firmware version 1.0.02 (build 13) supports IPV6. Higher than that is much better. You may check for the latest firmware from this link, http://support.linksys.com/en-us/support/routers/E4200

Internet Speed Test

I've got a E4200 and when running the internet speed test from the Cisco Connect software the download works fine and then it immediately fails on the upload test. Happens on various other internet speed test sites as well. However does work on speedtest.net.

Try the following steps:
A] With the help of Cisco Connect Software (if at all you have installed the router with the help of this software)
1] Open the software and go to the option which says "Router Settings"
2] Then click on the option which says "Advanced Settings" which will take you to the router's configuration page.
3] Then go to the Wireless tab, keep network mode as mixed,
For Channel Settings of 2.4 GHz you can make Channel Width to 20 MHz only and Channel to 6, 9, 11..
For Channel Settings of 5 GHz you can make Channel Width to 20 MHz only and Channel to 40 or 161...
B] If you haven't installed Cisco Connect then you can log on to the router's user interface using it's default IP address in the browser which is 192.168.1.1 and type in 'admin' as the password leaving the username field blank. This will take you to the router's web interface and then follow steps as mentioned above to make the changes.

Non-Flash based internet speed test sites for touch?

I'd like to test my internet speed directly from my touch. It seems like the speed test sites out there that I've found (like www.speakeasy.net/speedtest)use Flash which won't work with the touch. Does anyone know of any internet speed test sites that will work on the touch's Safari browser?

Great! Thanks for the info. The results seem to be lower than normal though. I could not get over 768k even with my 1.5mb cable connection here at home. I did find this site: http://i.dslr.net/tinyspeedtest.html which seems to test more accurately.

Internet speed test app for Asha 311

Is there any internet speed test app for Asha 311? I tried the speed test from http://bsnlspeedtest.in but the result was very high. I have Airtel 3G and it always shows 3.5G.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you want to check the max speed of your phone internet there are two methods.
1.
Check the speed in kbps while downloading any file using UC browser. Get UC browser from Nokia store or via www.ucweb.com
2.
Connect your phone as a modem to your pc and use any pc web browser and check the speed at http://speedtest.net or any other sites.
Hope this helps.

Internet speed test slow on MacBook Pro

I just moved into a new house and signed up for internet service with 100 mbps download speed. Sounds great! Except my newish (refurb purchased in Aug 14) MacBook Pro is only running a speed test with results between 2.92 mbps - 7.89 mbps. We've checked it against my husband's work computer which is an HP zBook which is getting results over 60 mbps. He also plugged in his computer directly to the modem and got 125 mbps!! His computer is lightning fast. Pages are loading in the blink of an eye. My MacBook is sluggish and taking a much longer time to load.
So, it's not our internet service. The problem is definitely with my MacBook Pro. It's even slower than my iPad. I've tried googling but I can't find anything about it and not sure where to start with fixing it. I'm not sure what specs I should include but my computer was advertised as having "the latest 802.11ac Wi‑Fi and Bluetooth 4.0 wireless technology".
Any suggestions?

802ac is the wireless WiFi.      WiFi issues may exist if you use 802.11g or 802.11b.   G is only 33 Mbps.   B is only 11 Mbps and is insecure.
MacBooks with a CoreDuo and or CoreSolo only supported 802.11g. You needed a Core2Duo to support 802.11n.    If you have a Core2Duo Mac, make sure the 8011n patch was applied to it.   Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac -> More Info or System Information to determine what sort of WiFi is your connection.
Note internet speed tests are not very reliable. And Mac OS X 10.6.7, if that's what you have is not able to run the latest Java, so its results could be skewed by the lack of the latest Java support.    It doesn't mean you can't get the speed though.   See this article about internet speed:
kad: Testing your internet connection speed

Internet speed test app

Is their a good internet speed test app? I have "Speed Test for iPad". It gives such inconsistent results that I don't trust the results.

I have Speedtest XHD. seems to work pretty well.
As for inconsistancies, depending on how you are access the internet - and how you define inconsistant - you should count on it. Any app measuring this is going to be giving you a snapshot in time. and it will vary from test to test sometime by quite a bit.

Internet speed test EA6500

Hi guys,
sorry for my english.
I've a problem with the internet speed of my ADSL line(20Mega). Now I've the following components:
Dlink DSL-320B(modem)+Cisco Linksys EA6500. If I start a Speed test the result its only 4M in download, while i remove the router and i connect my Pc directly to modem, the speed test results its 13-14M.
Why? Is there any option in router that I must modify?
Help please.
Thx
Solved!

Do you have media prioritization enabled? This is most likely the case. You may disable this feature. Better yet, upgrade your router's firmware. This should fix the issue. Visit the EA6500 Support Page for the latest firmware.

How can I read the internet speed in a MAC?

How can I find the INTERNET SPEED in a MAC?

You typically use a free Internet Speed test. It does an upload and a download from a known site, bypassing certain configuration problems. Just do a search to find a dozen services eager to test with you (in exchange for the Ads on their pages).
Do not pay for this service, and DO NOT accept any CR@P they suggest you download to "fix" your speed. They cannot tell from outside whether you have problems, and none of the things you can download ever makes anything better.
If using Wi-Fi, one generally finds that the Wi-Fi part of the connection is the limiting factor.

Slow internet speeds and constant disconnections

Hi, when i first got BT broadband (unlimited option) i was getting 2mbps, now it seems that i can barely go past 100kbs. Strangely enough all internet speed tests i do results show that i get around 1mbps, but that is not what i am getting. If i download something i can barely browse the internet due to it taking all the 100kbs.

Since getting BT broadband my router has been constantly loosing connection and at points restarting itself. I could live with that due to the nice speed i was getting. If anyone could please help me i would appreciate it very much.

There are noticeable speed issues however you noise margin is high at 22.4 normal default is 6db when reduced to that level your connection speed would increase and like wise your download speed you could contact the forum mods and ask them to reset your noise margin this is a link to them

SLOW INTERNET*PLEASE HELP SPEED TEST RESULTS ATTACHED

just wanted to share my results.
http://www.speedtest.net/result/1013255725.png
YOU'VE Got to check it!!!!!

When you ran the tests was your Anti-Virus operational? I find that some antivirus programs (AVG) will cause bizarre speedtest results. Temporarily disabling them when you run the tests may show more consistent results.
Your results are showing really high speeds, not slow internet speeds as your subject suggests.

Last night I rented a movie successully (Argo) but it would not download. Support was called and I was advised that it was probably an internet speed issue. This was confirmed when I did a speed test as suggested. They now want to sell me some software for $40.00. Help

Hi,
No, it was Apple. Last night the movie (Argo) was downloaded. It took about an hour, however it did not open.
I can watch the preview, but can't open it.
Thanks for your interest.

Internet Speed Terribly, Consistenly SLOW... Despite "Good" Test Speed Results!

Internet has been terribly slow since we got FIOS Internet (75/50mbps) installed here half a year ago.
YouTube clips, Skype and even our NetFlix streams are all choppy, and inconsistent. Doing searches on Google, Yahoo, or Edmunds would take 3 to 10 seconds...which we all know in 2014 is completely unacceptable.
I have done my homework validating all the potential failure points. I am in the software industry since 1999 and have an expert knowledge in network, databases and systems integration in general. Everything that can be checked, have been done. I've followed all your suggestions on the website, but in vain.
I'm connecting to the FIOS router from several different devices (PC Laptop, MacBooks, iPhone and iPad) wirelessly about 3 to 30 feet away. No microwaves, no fridges, no baby monitors, no thick walls or doors obstructing. Apple TV and WD External HD are unplugged.... yet the internet is SLOW. Ran the Speed test over the past weeks and months, and I always 'score' pretty good....50/35 or 65/40mbps etc. The numbers are impressive but do not reveal the real performance! Back in our old home in Brooklyn, my scores were the same (using Verizon FIOS - same service/speed)...but the speed lived up to the Speed Test results. Had no problem over there.
Can anyone help me? What am I missing? Any special tricks of the trade with this Verizon FIOS internet service?
If this is not getting resolved very shortly, I am ready to escalate this to the management level at Verizon.
Please advise. Thanks everyone for listening.

The best way to find where the problem is without using test gear is by the process of elimination.
Test you LAN using LAN Speedtest. First test using Ethernet connections and see if you can get speeds of 90+ Mbps. Much higher is possible if the equipment you are testing with has gigabyte capability at both ends.
If you can't 90+ on your LAN there is a problem with your LAN setup that needs to be addressed.
Then you can test speeds on your LAN using WiFi.
Using Speedtest introduces to many additional variables making it very difficult to diagnose throughput problems.
Once you know that your LAN is up to standard then you can point at Verizon.

Internet page latency, but speed tests fast

I'm running a 1.67 Ghz PB G4 with OS 10.4 on a wireless network which comes from a Linksys router which is managed by a Windows PC. There are Windows PCs and Macs on our network. Our internet connection is DSL.
Recently I started having a problem where my internet page load times (using Safari or Firefox) are incredibly slow. But when I run speed tests, it tests out great - 1215 kbps down/738 kbps up. Downloading and uploading files is fast and flawless. It is browsing the web where the problem lies.
Of the 6 computers on this network, the 4 widows PCs don't have this problem, but the 2 Macs do. The other Mac is an old G4 Powermac running some version of OS 9.
Any ideas?

Thanks so much, Duane. The DNS server was indeed the problem. Apparently the Macs in the house are unable to obtain the DNS information automatically. I went to my ISP's support site, searched for "DNS servers," and found the appropriate numbers. These I enter in my network settings, and internet life is now a lot speedier.

Linksys E4200V2 - VERY Slow Performance-WIRED, WIRELESS, INTERNET SPEED

Hi everyone... I just want to start by saying that I am a very unsatisfied customer!
I purchased the Linksys E4200 V2 on 02.06.2012 since this is the latest high end router from Linksys which according to the specs and the reviews this router is supposed to be super mega fast...the box should probably say SUPER MEGA SLOW.
I called support and after spending two hours on the phone they said that the case will be escalated and that someone will contact me within 48 hrs - It has now been more than 72 hrs and no phone calls or emails have come my way - the router is still not performing.
The following is my setup:
HP Quad Core Desktop with Windows 7 x64 bit with 8GB RAM
Network Card is an integrated 1GBPS card
I've upgraded all of my ethernet cables to Cat 6 (to see if this made and difference - which it did not)
LinkSys E4200 V2 router
Western Digital My Book Duo Live 6TB external drive with ethernet port of 1GBPS
This weekend I went as far as reinstalling a fresh copy of Windows 7 x64 on a Solid State Hard drive
My PC is connected to the E4200V2 via Cat 6 cable
The My Book Duo is connected to the E4200V2 via Cat 6 Cable
The E4200V2 is connected to my cable modem via Cat 6 Cable
ISSUES:
WIRED
I am getting no more than 20mbs when I copy a 85GB folder from my PC to my external My Book Duo. I expected to get either 1GBPS speed or at least 400MBs speed since all devices are connected via 1GBPS interfaces and the cables ar Cat 6. I am using both the native windows copy and paste and I am also using TeraCopy to copy files.
WIRELESS
The wireles speed is BAD as well - I am not getting no more than 50MBS with my laptop located just 20 inches from the router.
CABLE MODEM CONNECTION
When I run speed tests to the internet I am getting a very slow speed test of 1.5MBS and sometimes I get 20MBS with the E4200V2 router.
With my OLD Netgear router I get speed tests of 28MBS and never 1.5MBS.

Hi there,
I've got a very similar problem.
I've got the Cisco Linksys E4200 (Firmware Version: 1.0.05 build 7 Aug 23, 2012).
With my previous router, I was able to copy files over the wired network at roughly 11MB/sec (about 100Mbps).
Now, with the new Linksys router plugged in, with the same cables and pcs, etc, I can only get an average copy rate of 4.4MB/sec - under HALF the speed that I was previously getting - and often sustained slow speeds of roughly 1.8MB/sec
Any ideas???
Otherwise I'm returning this router for something else!!!
I can see that you already have the latest firmware. It might be that the firmware is corrupted. What I can suggest is to reflash the firmware, reset and reconfigure the router. You might as well try to disable WMM.

Internet speeds keep slowing down to a crawl

I'm having a problem that has only developed in the past week which was during a time when I haven't changed any configurations in that period of time since my son was born a week ago yesterday and I obviously had more important things to do than mess with my network configurations. However, about 2 weeks prior to his birth, in the process of configuring a baby monitoring system with icam source, 3 weeks or so ago, I read that I might be able to improve my internet performance, I ran googles namebench a couple of times and added and re-ordered the DNS servers that had been listed prior to any problems developing based on its' reports. My internet speeds improved as a result of changing those DNS settings and stayed good until the past week. But of course, we now need to use the computer as part of our baby monitoring system and it's not working worth a **** and I'm getting frustrated since I can't put my finger on the problem and I don't really have time to spin around in circles right now. I'm sure it's probably something simple and I can't put my finger on it though. Sleep deprivation is new to me.......
I've kept running log of notes so this is a little deshoveled but I figured the more information I provide the better the chance someone might help me get this solved quickly.
In the last week, since my sons birth, my internet speeds would be okay after restarts and resetting everything, 2.5 Mbps or so but after a 10-15 minutes it starts to slow down to .2-.3 Mbps. I went thru all my network settings, restarted everything, repaired permissions, I've changed ethernet cables reset PRAM, firewall is running, stealth mode enabled, allow signed software incoming connections and my various other programs such as netsessionmac4f3c6b, skype, java, itunes, etc.
All sharing services off and pretty basic login items at startup including growl.
I had AT&T come out and check my DSL line and everything checked out on their end up to and out of the DSL modem based in their equipment tests.
The problem seems to start when I connect my imac (a fairly loaded 27" imac I got in Dec.) First off, as soon as the imac is connected to the modem via ethernet, the old ethernet modem flashes and continues to flash, even right after startup. So the tech thought something was running in the background and I can't figure out what. I looked through login items but don't see anything that would be a problem and am afraid to eliminate everything.
So I created a guest account to eliminate any login items (I think) and in I got 5.69 Mbps right off the bat. But after a minute or two, without changing anything my download speed slows down and I get for example .77 Mbps. The same thing happens with my administrator account on the imac. Fast speeds at startup and more importantly if I change the configuration by switching between ethernet and airport, I get fast speeds right after changing the configuration but after a minute or two I am well below 1.0 Mbps. I've got several network configurations with automatic, airport and ethernet set up in different ways including a clean ethernet connection with the original DNS settings.
I haven't set up an airport only account but that really isn't the way I want to hook up the computer that sits right next to the modem and runs my network. Restarting the old modem and direct connecting the computer to the modem results in the same thing happening.
I connected my ethernet from the (old?) modem directly to my ancient powerbook G4 and I got +5.6 Mbps download but it also slowed down to 300 kbps after 5 minutes or so the first time (old modem?)
Now to explain why I have "old?" listed above. I was then able to get a new DSL modem from AT&T, hook it up just fine, get enormously faster internet service in the 5,000 kbps only to have it slow back down to around 300 kpbs after connected for several minutes.
directly connected to imac-bypassing router
3,500 kbps
after 15 minutes-250 kbps
connected to imac thru router/time capsule with airport extreme
2500 kbps
after 15 minutes=166 kbps
directly connected to an older powerbook G4 with new modem
IP address of 192.168.1.64
5.65 Mbps on speedtest
after 15 minutes=5.67 Mbps
after 30 minutes= 5.59 Mbps
1 hour-5.66 Mbps
Very solid, stable readings for what I am used to. This would seem to isolate the problem to the imac.
directly connected to imac with new modem
IP address of 192.168.1.64
5.8 Mbps on speedtest
after 30 minutes= .60 Mbps-ping takes 250 ms
1 hour= .46 Mbps-ping takes 250 ms
Now a problem that only started last night after I hooked up the new modem and started up my old Time capsule/airport configuration, I got a message that said something to effect of "another device on this network is using computer IP address 192.168.1.64. So I tried manually changing last digit of the IP address on the computer to one number higher and it kept saying the start and end range were incorrect so I shut the airport station down since when it was connected, it would not allow the computer to connect thru the router via ethernet. I did a hard reset on the airport and I got it back up and running just fine but the internet speeds on the imacs' ethernet connections are so slow it's practically worthless. I also checked to see what was connected to my airport on any given occasion, 2 iphones, 2 pads, another imac running upstairs and a newer powerbook running icam source that is supposed to be the baby monitor. Except for the laptop everything can use "802.11n" but the powerbook only connects via 802.11g so I have set the airport to that limiting setting.
Any suggestions? Is there a way for me to log what is happening so I can report in more detail?

First thing is to check if the wireless is on a sensible channel: HomeHub doesn't always make sensible choices. Install inSSIDer on your laptop and see what other devices there are around and if there is any clash. Also, try moving the HomeHub around a little, even quite small differences can make a big difference to wireless signals.
You could run an ethernet cable from downstairs to upstairs. Easy to do, but can be a bit unsightly. If most of your devices are upstairs, you could use this cable to connect the modem to the HomeHub. If you have devices both up and down, you may want to keep the HomeHub downstairs and add a switch upstairs.
HomePlug may be suitable for you. If you search Amazon for HomePlug you will see a couple of kits for just over £30. Don't go for an 85Mbps one. A 200Mbps such as the TP-link or D-Link should be much better than wireless, but not as good as a cable.
Depending excatly how many devices you want to connect and where, you can pay more and have a builtin wireless at one end: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Devolo-1408-Wireless-N-HomePlug-Adapter/dp/B00472MMCQ/ref=sr_1_15?ie=UTF8&qi... Or it may be best for you to use the basic devices and add an old wireless router in switch mode.
