About

OpenPacketLoss

Read full description

OpenPacketLoss-Server is a lightweight utility that transforms your computer into a dedicated network testing endpoint. By hosting the server on your own hardware, you can measure the precise quality of the connection between two points on your network, eliminating the unpredictable variables of the public internet. How to Use It Run the Server: Launch the app on a stable PC or laptopβ€”this becomes your "target" device. Connect the Client: Use any OpenPacketLoss client on a different device (such as a phone, tablet, or another PC). Troubleshoot: Start the test to view real-time packet loss, jitter, and latency. Why Run Your Own Server? Testing against a server you control allows you to isolate your hardware. You can instantly determine if connection drops are caused by faulty cables, weak Wi-Fi, or router congestion, or if the issue is actually with your Internet Service Provider (ISP).

MySpd is a fast, private, beautifully simple internet speed test β€” and it measures something most speed tests hide: how your connection behaves under load. In a few seconds you get your real download and upload speeds, ping, and jitter. But MySpd goes further with a responsiveness score (RPM) and a stability grade that reveal whether your connection will actually hold up for video calls, online gaming, and 4K streaming β€” not just how fast it looks on a graph. WHAT YOU GET β€’ Download & upload speed (Mbps or MB/s) β€’ Ping and jitter β€’ Loaded latency, responsiveness (RPM), and an A–F stability grade for bufferbloat β€’ Real-world verdicts: 4K streaming, video calls, online gaming β€’ Your ISP, IP address, and the test server location β€’ Automatic Wi-Fi vs. cellular detection HISTORY & TRENDS Every test is saved on your device. Browse your history, filter by Wi-Fi or cellular, and watch your speeds trend over time on a clean chart. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No ads. No accounts. No tracking. MySpd doesn't collect any data β€” test traffic goes straight to Cloudflare's global speed-test network, and your results never leave your device. ARABIC & ENGLISH Full support for Arabic (with right-to-left layout) and English, switchable inside the app. Whether you're troubleshooting a slow connection, checking if you're getting the speed you pay for, or just curious, MySpd gives you the honest numbers β€” and tells you what they actually mean.
