Ookla and iPerf, we have now settled on Viavi's QT-600 platform:<br>

<br>
We shall use it as a private system, primarily to activate and
handover customer services, and on rare occasions, perform
post-delivery testing.<br>
<br>
We are no longer interested in indulging endless speed tests that
are practically meaningless and leave ISP's with the burden of
explaining things they can't control.<br>

<div dir="ltr">As an internet service provider with many small
business and residential customers, our most common tech support
calls are speed related. Customers complaining on slow speeds,
slowdowns, etc.

<div>We have a SNMP and ping monitoring platform today, but that
mainly tells us up-time and if data is flowing across the
interface. We can of course see the link speed, but customer
call in saying the are not getting that speed. <br>

<div>We are looking for a way to remotely test customers
internet connections besides telling the customer to go to <a

or worse sending a tech out with a laptop to do the same
thing.</div>

<div>What opensource and commercial options are out there? </div>
