Lappen Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Hi, I'm afraid that my network speed between my unraid server and my clients is not optimal. Could someone guide me through how to test the speed? It looks like i'm connected with 1000Mb/s, but the LED indicators on my switch indicates that it's only 100Mb/s??? Furthermore I can see that I have som network drops. I should be noted that i'm using Cat6 cables between router and Unraid server and the distance between router and switch is 20 meters.

Chugiak Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Your router and switch both are gigabit I take it? Assuming you have access to a Linux consile on each system you can run lperf or netcat. System Rescue CD (Good to have on CD and bootable Linux thumb drive) has netcat as one of the packages. http://www.sysresccd.org/SystemRescueCd_Homepage Then do a test like in this example: http://www.ryanchapin.com/fv-b-4-627/Simple-Network-Speed-Command-Line-Test-for-Linux.html Link to comment
