178997 2003-09-29 12:06:00 Does anyone know of a software speed tester so I can get some idea of my networks speed (Installed my first network today, hopefully the first of many...) Jamezo (1062)
178998 2003-09-29 20:17:00 General rule of thumb:
10mb/s = 1.25MB/s
100mb/s = 12.5MB/s

Speeds will be slower than that due to TCP headders, but you can expect speeds around that mark. Also, it depends on the protocols being used - if you only have TCP running then you can generally expect slighty faster speeds than with IPX bound to TCP...
