[Lincoln LUG] Internet Testing

Hi All

I have a school which has a very slow internet connection and I would 
like to prove it is the connection from the router to the nearest POP 
(point of presence).

I have a raspberry pi and I thought that with the right software, I 
could get it to monitor the connection and graph the results.

I am looking at ntop. I have not done much with it yet but my initial 
feeling is that it just monitors the pi's eth0 so I would still have to 
cron an upload/download at regular intervals to get meaningful results.

Would this work?

Regards

Kevin
