Internet speed test

[Dario]

Hi,
is it possible with a LUA script, make a internet speed test?
Thanks

You can test download speed like this. But most likely the result will be lower than the available network bandwidth.

Code:

require('socket.http')

ts, tu = os.microtime()
data = socket.http.request('http://speed.transip.nl/10mb.bin')
time = os.udifftime(ts, tu)
speed = string.format('%.2f MB/s', 10 / time)

log(speed)
