Hi,
I have two specs from two different hosts I am using:
(a) Dedicated server with Full duplex 100Mbits internet connection ($140 per month)
(b) Shared Host on a server that has 100Mbits internet connection ($7 per month)
I have tested my application which downloads from other servers and lets users download from my site in turn. I have tested this again and again and it takes the same time to download files! But the dedicated is much faster in the final download to the clients computer.
Firstly, are there any Linux commands or tools I can use to test bandwidth properly for each server?
Secondly, why the hell do they have the same download speed from other servers??
Please shed some light on this as I feel I've been wasting money for no reason!!
Thanks all
