Examining The Test Results


Sample UDP test with 100 Passes.


When you start a test the status window becomes active and displays the results of each pass as they occur.  This window also shows the current test number, time elapsed, test progress, and overall progress.  The min., max. and average boxes show the current test totals and the cur (current) displays the results of the current test number.  Min and Max help to recognize throughput anomalies that may only appear for a short time. This is a test of an 802.11 network card operating with a 2.4 GHz wireless phone.  We see that the overall performance of the card 5.57Mbits at close range and the packet error rate has also been affected..



Closer examination of the graph reveals periodic interference that occurs when the phone is communicating with the base station, causing reduced bandwidth and a high packet error rate.



A complete set of data, and summary info is also shown in the test summary window.
