    Default Check your download speed

    This is Netflix's tool where you can check your download speed in real time. Easier than Speedtest and none of the ads, doesn't check upload speed though.

    Do not send me a PM if what you want to talk about isn't absolutely private.
    Ask your questions on the forum where others can also benefit from the information.

    Do not underestimate the value of solid diagnostics tools, especially those where you can control as many variables as possible. That domain is a drop in the bucket in terms of overall support costs for the product, IMO.
