Way to measure cable modem download/upload speed?

[fusillijerry89]

My ISP is throttling me. They are the worst ISP I have ever dealt with, and unfortunately the area I live in only has 1 ISP. Talk about a money-opoly.

Anyways, I was wondering if there is a good way to measure the download and upload speed coming in through the cable modem. Is there a physical box that I could place in between the modem and the ISP that would keep track of this data for me? Or is there a program to do this sort of thing?


Thanks for all your help!

speedtest.net will do that

Speedtest.net is good for testing your speeds. If you're also wanting to check how much data you're using a month you MIGHT be able to do so by signing into your ISP account. I know Comcast has this feature, but not sure about the others.
