BPL Speed Test

BTW: Your local computer store sells the powerline HD ethernet adapters, such as netgear, that allows you to connect you unattached garage to your home internet using your standard wall plug as in my case – and it works great!

Did we miss a bandwidth meter that should have been included in the list? If so, let us know by leaving a comment.
I have fixed point wireless I can run the meter but not the graph test. I use to be able to run both. I use it when my connection seems slow as with fixed point the price goes up substantially with the speed. I’m not real happy with it but don’t have much for choices/ phone tethering /satellite. They are suppose to upgrade the system soon as they have too many costumers in this area. It least that’s what I’m told.
please, I want to have your bandwith meter to control my internet speed at home.
Thank you
