Question

I bought a server and I need to check it’s internet connection (speed).

Is there an easy way to do that?

I googled but I couldn’t find anything…

I did this:

<?php

$link = 'http://speed.bezeqint.net/big.zip';
$start = time();
$size = filesize($link);
$file = file_get_contents($link);
$end = time();

$time = $end - $start;

$speed = $size / $time;

echo "Server's speed is: $speed MB/s";


?>

Is it correct?

Answer 1

Try:

<?php

$link = 'http://speed.bezeqint.net/big.zip';
$start = time();
$size = filesize($link);
$file = file_get_contents($link);
$end = time();

$time = $end - $start;

$size = $size / 1048576;

$speed = $size / $time;

echo "Server's speed is: $speed MB/s";
