Monitor my ISP performance

by gigelul . Updated 24 years, 1 month ago

We have a 64k leased line for Internet connection. I’m worry about the quality of this connection (or quality of the ISP’s services). Sometimes I can’t access websites out of the country or I have a very slow speed websites load.
Configuration:
-Full WinNT network. + 1 Linux server (Slakware8.0) for communications (e-mail and browsing/download, without web server-redirected to other website).
-35 computers have access to this communication server. I know that 35 computers can be a little more for 64k but I’m monitoring the LAN and not here is the problem.
-applications used: IE6.0, MS Outlook and all patches/updates were applied.
-The Linux server is connected to Internet with a radio modem to our ISP (I don’t have other option in this area). Somebody tell me that the weather and radio communication can be a problem. I don’t think, it works at 3GHz.
I speak with my ISP when the problems were occurred and he told me that the problems were a router or FO cable or etc. But it’s happened frequently.
I wish a monitoring/testing procedure with log files for a long period of time (one month) to fix/negotiate these problems with my ISP (I can’t change very easy the ISP).
If somebody need more details I will post.
Thank you.
