⬥ THE AMETHYST SPEED LEDGER

Throughput record · United Communications fiber · measured by the router every 30 minutes
loading…
What this is. An automatic, timestamped record of this connection's throughput, taken every 30 minutes by the household's gateway router itself — a MikroTik CCR2116 — with no computer involved. It is kept as plain documentation of what the line delivers over time, in both directions.

How it is measured. The router runs the test: 16 parallel streams to the server named in each row, 15 seconds pulling, then 15 seconds pushing. Sustained is the test's 15-second result. Best second is the highest single second the router's own fiber-port counter saw during that test — what the line can burst to, not what it delivers. Tests run against United Communications' own server (speed.united.net, Nolensville TN) and against a public 10 Gbps server in Atlanta (Clouvider); results to the Atlanta server reflect the internet path beyond United's network as well as the line itself.

Each test runs only when the home network is idle (checked at the gateway first; busy moments are logged as "skipped," never measured), so no household usage can pollute a result.
