Hello Garrison1701, I am the owner/operator of the original btest server IPv4 address: 207.32.194.24 & IPv6 address: 2605:4e40:0:1fe::
I just wanted to step in and welcome and it’s nice to see another public access btest server on-line.
If you experience any issues or problems, you are welcome to contact me for how I might of delt with the same problem.

Thanks, Tom. I actually just set up a queue for burst at 4 Gbps with sustained speeds at 1 Gbps. Figured it might be bad if it maxed my connection briefly.
Heads up, I had to temporarily power-off the public access btest server I manage.
Here in the U.S. , there are thousands of business every where that have laid-off workers , and many of those workers are now working from home. Additionally, Netflix (and other on-line movie video sources) are getting increased bandwidth usage. In some locations, the Internet is experiencing much greater than normal bandwidth and some ISPs are experiencing problems. To help my ISP/WISP operations, I have temporarily disabled the btest server so that I can divert the normal ( peaking up to 2-Gig btest traffic) bandwidth to my customers.
I promise to return the btest server back on-line just as soon as my network stabilizes and the bandwidth is once again available.
This is the first time in over 4-years I have taken this btest server off-line for anything other than basic maintenance.
Everybody , be safe and take proper precautions to protect your ISP/WISP, business, customer and employees. And consider preparing your network(s) for a possible network increase of anywhere from 5 percent to 75 percent. So far, I am only at an additional 5 percent but I am getting ready for an additional 50 percent increase very soon to hit our networks.

Hello everyone,
Do you know what’s happenning with NETERRA bandwidth server?.
It seems that is down, almost since february.
Thanks!
What is a NETERRA bandwidth server?
Sorry!
I’d refer to the server at:
IP: 87.121.0.45
U: neterra
P: neterra
Last time I have seen was on february 25th.
A few minutes ago, I brought my public access btest server back on-line.
It is now running again - however , I reduced the maximum btest throughput (using multiple Simple-Queues) to 100 Meg.
Normally this btest server has has the ability to btest at greater than Gig Internet best speeds.
Because of the Corona virus pandemic and most of my customers now working from home and schooling from home, my ISP Internet bandwidth has jumped an additional 25 percent and sometimes peaks at an additional 150+ percent higher than my normal Internet traffic.
You are again welcome to use my btest server again. I ask that you please please please only perform short btest(s) to my server (because my Internet feeds are currently operating at much greater loads than normal.

Thanks for hosting the server! Just did a test in NJ on Comcast…actually getting more than advertised. I have 300 D/L and seeing 370..I’ll take it.! 10 U/L but showing 12…nice…
Moving from DOCSIS 3.0 this weekend to 3.1 so will see if that has any impact at all. I dont expect it to but it will let me know if the newer Netgear is better or worse than my existing Netgear modem
That’s a lot, I guess people have not much to do these days due to the virus. So everybody is in front of the computer including me writing you from my Greece property here
Hi All,
It works very well,
Perfect
Hello
Unfortunately 207.32.194.24 is unreachable. The traceroute stops at 207.32.194.6.
Hi there, I don’t seem to be able to use the bandwidth test server, is there a new IP or new login credentials?
Thank you in advance,
Dan
seems like 207.32.194.24 doesn’t work anymore 
I just rebooted the btest server.
From time to time, the Mikrotik btest server ( on CHR ) will just quit working and the btest service will stop and show un-checked

Here’s a tip for those wanting to test bandwidth. Especially if under 1Gbps.
I used my Azure account to create a Windows 10 Pro virtual machine in a region near me with a 1Gbps link.
RDPed into it, disabled the firewall for ease, and downloaded the Mikrotik btest.exe program (https://mt.lv/btest)
Using this, I was able to successfully test the capabilities of my link for as long as I needed, when I needed.
This doesn’t take long to setup, and if destroyed afterwards only cost pennies.
Hi ,
how i can access to this server .. i tried winbox and telnet but nothing .. Any way , Thanks in advance
Kind Regards

Use Bandwidth Test client to access it.
FYI
I just now updated the 207.32.194.24 btest server
From: 6.46.5
To: 6.47

Just tried it. I can get data when I transmit but I see no stats when I try to do a receive test.
