With that said, I did change my DNS servers from their standard servers to Google's. Also, my IP address from Qwest changes VERY frequently. I did go to the WAN status page and Connection status page and while it shows the IP address I get from Qwest and DNS servers it does NOT show the gateway address. However, all Qwest DSL modems are setup in such a way that they act as a router (can give out multiple IP addresses) regardless if the device itself has extra ports or physical networking capabilities. I am now at home - and the results are accurateĪctually, the picture you provided was a great help for me to understand what you were referring to. If not then you need to contact your ISP. So you would want to ping that first router "your" router is connected it. What router do you have and I can help you find your isp gateway. What you want to test your latency to that first router you connect to on the internet - your ISP gateway.įor example - on my pfsense router, I can view the wan (isp) connection info. Just hoping from router to router across the internet. and its lan IP or your pcs gateway is the router 192.168.1.1, well the router has a router upstream of it, which in turn connects to other routers, etc. You should be able to see this on your routers status page for its internet connection. it has a gateway to get off the 24 network and go to say neowin - so your internet gateway might be 24.1.1.1 for example. Your behind a router - you get a public IP from your ISP lets call it 24.1.1.100 for example. Look on your router - it should have a status page for your internet connection or something. No for one your modem does not have a IP. I should know this but, when you say my ISP gateway.you're talking about my modem IP? Off the top there is namebench and Im pretty sure GRC site provides one as well.īut to be honest 20 to 90ms is pretty good for pings - unless of course 90 ms was to your isp gateway. There have been some tools posted for checking dns responses.
You could try a different dns server - are you bouncing off your router for dns? You could try opendns or googles dns services to see if that makes a difference. If your getting slow initial page connections - this could be related to your dns responding slow, timing out, etc. But can be skewed since Im remoting the machine on my home box for the test from work, etc. Im getting some higher results right now my self. Keep in mind that you might want to try other servers, and can get some weird results if servers are busy, or your line is busy downloading, etc. So 8ms - you can not ask for much better than that to be honest. You could try just pinging your ISP gateway - this should be very low!! Unless your ISP gateway is blocking icmp? For example here is ping to my isp gateway.ġ1 packets transmitted, 11 received, 0% packet loss, time 10018ms You could try for decent test to a server in your area. Where is the site for a big one - if its on your ISP network or on the other side of the planet )
#Pfsense namebench download
So close your browser, close Steam or any gaming platform that could start updating games or download data.The pings to different sites are going to vary for many different reasons. Don’t surf the internet while the benchmark is running, we do not want our test results being influenced by any traffic. Now, before you hit Start Benchmark make sure you don’t have any downloads running or anything producing traffic on your network. We will leave the rest of the options as they are.
