Download test file!!

[admin]

Just want to post this as we have had a few new customers ask how they can test our network with a big file..

Well here it is..

http://matrixwebhosting.net/10meg.file

[admin]

Also any one that tests this if you can post the out come would be great. I would like to get an idea how fast it is now and how fast it is after the new core router / switch goes in to place in 2 weeks..

Not too bad, now on May 4th we will have to see if we can't make that faster once we get the new switch / router in..

My problem (slowness) is my connection... it's impossible for me to download a file faster than the slowest link in my connection.
