Hello,
I get a bit confused also, (no pun intended). In terms of the internet, when
you are transmitting data, such as when talking about speed, it is always in
bits rather than bites. As far as the question of why wi-fi is slower than
wired, it is nearly always that way. A wired

For use in terminal; macports and homebrew have speedtest-cli which is a text
only version of the speedtest.net results.

Hi,
You can also download the SpeedTest app from the AppStore. It's free and
supposedly is more reliable for tests over 100 Mbps.

Hi Simon,
Oops, sorry. Should have used proper abbreviations. Yeah, 268 Mbps this
evening. Bytes would be better, of course. This is on a WiFi connection.

Bill,
I ran it also. My upload is only 3 Mbps and download 43 Mbps. Pretty pathetic,
compared to Tim. But we don’t pay for any upgrades on our cable, so that may be
typical.

Maybe I should explain myself. I think I got lost after I opened the link as I

OK, I ran the speed test and the results appear to be significantly slower
than what I am supposedly paying for from my ISP.
Is this a normal characteristic or am I being overcharged for service?
