Hello experts,

I am currently using bandwidth checker with PHP script to measure my network speed but some times I feel that it can't give me the all the statistics which I want for example exact number of bytes transmitted, HTTP headers and also some extra info. Please suggest me some other software who have advance features and also from where I can get it?

Hi Larry S Montelongo,

There are some sites which offer you to check the bandwidth in online. Bandwidth Place is one of the best sites that allows to test your broadband speed. Without downloading any separate software you can easily test your internet speed on desktop, laptop or mobile device. Speed Test is another good site to check the upload and download speed of your bandwidth connection.
