Rogers Speedtest

Rogers Speedtest

I ran some connectivity tests on Rogers (and Videtron for comparison) over a few days.

  • a ping test (300 pings in 300s) every 5 minutes
  • speedtest-cli every 5 minutes

Notes: The host running on Rogers (bell.ts.imetrical.com was a seriously underpowered 8 year old chromebook i.e. Acer Aspire ONE 532H-2223 - 10.1" - Atom N450 - 1 GB RAM - 160 GB HDD - BIOS release Date : 2010-01-30. It was updated to ubuntu 18.04 (from 12.04) for this test.

The Videotron test was run on a Mac Mini (mid 2011)

The dip in Rogers' speed between Aug 18th and 19th is explained by moving the test box from a wired connection to Wifi, dropping it's average speed from 90 Mb/s to below 25 Mb/s
