Speedtest.net, also known as Speedtest by Ookla, is a web service that provides free analysis of Internet access performance metrics, such as connection data rate and latency. It is the flagship product of Ookla, a web testing and network diagnostics company founded in 2006, and based in Seattle, Washington , United States .
Spectrum is a leading internet service provider in the US, offering high-speed internet to customers in more than 40 states. Its regular plans start as low as $29.99 a month with a two-year price ...
TCP Vegas detects congestion at an incipient stage based on increasing Round-Trip Time (RTT) values of the packets in the connection unlike other flavors such as Reno, New Reno, etc., which detect congestion only after it has actually happened via packet loss. The algorithm depends heavily on accurate calculation of the Base RTT value.
The technical reasons for Internet bottlenecks are largely related to network congestion in which the user experiences a delay in delivering or accessing content. The bottlenecks can occur naturally, during high network use, or artificially created by owners of the network, generally considered to be ISPs, in order to prevent the network from ...
Congestive collapse (or congestion collapse) is the condition in which congestion prevents or limits useful communication. Congestion collapse generally occurs at choke points in the network, where incoming traffic exceeds outgoing bandwidth. Connection points between a local area network and a wide area network are common choke points.
Congestion Avoidance with Normalized Interval of Time (CANIT) [46] Non-linear neural network congestion control based on genetic algorithm for TCP/IP networks [47] D-TCP [48] NexGen D-TCP [49] Copa [50] TCP New Reno was the most commonly implemented algorithm, [citation needed] SACK support is very common [citation needed] and is an extension ...
Bandwidth throttling is also used as a measurement of data rate on Internet speed test websites. Throttling can be used to actively limit a user's upload and download rates on programs such as video streaming , BitTorrent protocols and other file sharing applications, as well as even out the usage of the total bandwidth supplied across all ...
Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) is an extension to the Internet Protocol and to the Transmission Control Protocol and is defined in RFC 3168 (2001). ECN allows end-to-end notification of network congestion without dropping packets.
