Upload and download measurement
-
Hi guys Is there any way to measure the download and upload capabilities beforehand when sending and receiving files via TCP transmission based on the file size of the file being sent or received? Thanks BS

I think the only way to get an accurage measurement is to actually send something over the pipes. You could factor in things like network card capabilities, or the type of connection (modem? LAN? VPN? etc.). You could also remember previous transmission speeds and use that for a guesstimate. There are also web services available to test your connection speed. Of course, these services simply send something across the pipes to gather the speed information.
