If either User or Password is incorrect, we will take a basic test instead. In other words, none of the advance options you set will take effect.

¾Direction - There are 3 options available for the traffic direction while estimating the throughput.

z transmit - Estimate the outgoing throughput (TX). z receive - Estimate the ingoing throughput (RX).

z both - Estimate the incoming (RX) first and then the outgoing (TX) afterwards.

¾Duration - The value you specify here indicate how much time the test should last.

¾Data amount - The maximal data amount to be sent out during the whole test.

)Note:

If both Duration and Data amount are specified, the test will stop after any of them is met.

Be sure to click the Run Test button to start a new test after you filled enough information. You can also stop a running test by click Stop Test button at any time.
