An interesting tool to control the quality of the wireless network in the
October WAY TO THE SOFTWARE FOR MEASURING THE SPEED 'OF INTERNET CONNECTION
Beginning next October will be possible to monitor
the performance of your Internet connection from a fixed location by a certified software and free
that consumers can use on your personal computer.
It will be called "Measuring the Internet" project, launched by the Authority for the guarantees in communications
in collaboration with the Fondazione Ugo Bordoni (FUB), which provides an innovative
control instrument through which the consumer will be more aware of
services offered by providers and orient
among the cheapest market, see for themselves the quality of their
line and comparing it with the "promise" by the operator
at the inception of the contract. Operators will be under an obligation to indicate the velocity
minimum transmission data from the network to the user (download) over the value of
theoretical maximum speed.
software made available to users, known Nemesys,
can be downloaded free from www.misurainternet.it as a realization.
using the "Internet Measurement" (with link to the download page)
will be published as well as sites of authority, and ISCOM Fub (the organ
technical / scientific work within the Ministry of Economic Development), also
over those of consumer associations (AA.CC.), implementing the Memorandum of Understanding between
Agcom and the National Council of Consumers and Users
(CNCU) to improve transparency, completeness and adequacy of pre-contractual and contractual conditions
addressed to users of communications services.
In order to promote the correct use of the new measurement instrument and
contribute to its spread, is scheduled for mid-September, a meeting with the
AA.CC., already informed of the purpose of the software.
The introduction of this innovative monitoring system is the result of
already carried out on an experimental basis in four regions Italian (Puglia, Sardinia, Tuscany and Veneto
), in collaboration with FUB Agcom to check the speed of download and upload
data transfer and the transfer delay for
Internet connections from a fixed location. The preliminary results of experimental verification are available on the site
www.agcom.it the page on the "Charter of services and quality
of electronic communications services", "Accessing the Internet from
fixed location."
