Can they run 4 YouTubeTV streams or can they run 20?
Can they download a file at 5 megabits/s or 15 gigabits/s?
There's not a problem to be solved, but information of a variety of types to be gleaned for a variety of purposes.

Are you saying that congestion doesn't exist?
Not sure how you took that from what I said. No, I am not.
I am saying your request for a 'layperson' to run a speed test doesn't seem particularly useful to identify that anyways. It's not a first order tool.
What is the problem you are trying to solve for?

It would be nice to gauge the capacity to a particular network that's something laypeople could do.15169 has enough capacity to external networks that a speed test from a random 'layperson' is never going to give you any meaningful information.On Wed, Dec 28, 2022 at 11:42 AM Mike Hammett <nanog@ics-il.net> wrote:Does AS15169 have a speed test?
