As an internet service provider with many small
business and residential customers, our most common tech support
calls are speed related. Customers complaining on slow speeds,
slowdowns, etc.
We have a SNMP and ping monitoring platform today, but that
mainly tells us up-time and if data is flowing across the
interface. We can of course see the link speed, but customer
call in saying the are not getting that speed.
We are looking for a way to remotely test customers
internet connections besides telling the customer to go to
speedtest.net,
or worse sending a tech out with a laptop to do the same
thing.
What opensource and commercial options are out there?
