How do you actually measure your bandwidth between your isp and your router?

I am trying to debug my home network and need to make sure that the isp is not the problem.

do a speed test with speedtest.net over eathernet with multiple devices directliy into the isp router, with nothing inbetween

I could use some help with this!

please, pm me if you would like to contribute to my gpu bios database (includes overclocking bios, stock bios, and upgrades to gpus via modding)

like others said speedtest.net. However for internal network (wifi) testing i also use the myfritz app for bandwith testing between device and router.

I use Speettest by Ookla. Seems to be pretty consistent and accurate in results.

 
 
 

I use it as well but it only test your LAN to global connection it dose not test the whole bandwidth from isp to router

Your lan to the global internet is the connection from the isp to your router. Whatever you get on the speed test is your bandwidth.

 

The only things that you could to to check your router's connection to your isp are 1) check the connection link speed (10/100/1000), 2) check the latency and packet loss by pinging your router's default gateway
