Hi folks,
I'm looking for a very specific type of app to monitor, "record" or "log" the Internet speed of my connection.
Let me introduce me a bit what's the problem I'm having.
I hired a new ISP and, as usual, they provided me the best Internet speed but just for the first month. In the next months, the Internet speed have been lowered. It's a marketing thing, we all know about that, I guess. So, before phoning them in order to let them know that the Internet speed isn't the same than the first month of use, I want to track/monitor my Internet speed in order to have some stats about the speed in order to argue against the ISP with proofs.
I have MenuMeters, so I can monitor my Internet Speed, but it doesn't generate any log or graph of the Internet Speed. I tried other apps but they seems to just log/record the amount of transferred data, not the Internet Speed.
The first month, my Internet Speed was always working perfectly (I have a connection of 6Mb downstream/1Mb upstream), which means that anything I used to download, I did it at 100% of my speed but after the first month of use, it went quite slow, from 1,6% to around 66,6% and never more at 100%.
So, I need an app able to track/monitor and record/log my Internet Speed, so I would be able to have a proof of how much speed I'm getting when downloading stuff.
I was doing this manually, by downloading X thing from the Internet (or from an FTP), writing up the download speed to an Excel sheet, many times per day, in order to record my Internet Speed so for example:
Sunday Download Speed:
09:00 a.m. = 128 Kb/s.
10:00 a.m. = 164 Kb/s.
11:00 a.m. = 250 Kb/s.
12:00 a.m. = 25 Kb/s.
01:00 p.m. = 1024 Kb/s.
02:00 p.m. = 500 Kb/s.
03:00 p.m. = 6 Mb/s.
Etc...
Where 6 Mb/s was constant the first month, which is right.
I have been tracking my Internet Speed that way, manually, and doing the average, some graphs and such.
It's there any app able to do the same thing?
Thanks in advance!
