What does "license expired" mean? Is the speed test no longer available?

Not to brag or anything but I think I found a better test…. The above test gives basic speed information but no real info you quality or capability of your connection. This is my favorite Broadband Speed Test site not only because they have line quality test but also because the other tests there and they can handle really high data rates.

Click on Broadband Diagnostics then TCP Quality Test or Speed/Cap Test and the rest is simple. They also have a true speed test, voip test and a couple of other things. The Voip test also assigns a MOS score to your test results. A 4.0 or better is considered an excellent score.

You get data back like this from the TCP Quality Test (testing my connection)

Plus it even gives you graphical data such as this (based on the test above).

And you get this data back from the Voip test...
