Lanbench Official

Start the test. LANBench will report throughput in MB/s (Megabytes per second). Understanding LANBench Results 100 Mbps Network: Expect around 11-12 MB/s. 1 Gbps (Gigabit) Network: Expect around 100-120 MB/s. 2.5 Gbps Network: Expect around 250-280 MB/s.

The benchmark will run for a default duration (typically 10 to 30 seconds).

: It typically maintains low CPU utilization (often below 5–10%) during tests.

Preferred for users who need to save test results in a database for later comparison. LANBench

Many users pay for Gigabit switches or routers but don't achieve ~ 110-120 MB/s actual throughput. LANBench helps verify if you are truly achieving 1 Gbps.

Results will populate immediately on the client’s main interface.

: Packet sizes can be customized or set to variable sizes to evaluate how network hardware handles differing frame scales. Start the test

LANBench operates on a . To conduct a test, you must run the application on two separate machines connected to the same network:

: Delivered as a single executable under 2MB, it requires no configuration changes, making it ideal for rapid field deployment.

Once these parameters are configured, click the "Start" button to begin the measurement. The application displays both instantaneous transfer rates and average throughput across all tests, giving you immediate visual feedback on network behavior. 1 Gbps (Gigabit) Network: Expect around 100-120 MB/s

Choose test duration and packet size (default settings are usually fine).

Surprisingly high results for short runs of certified Cat-3.

If your LANBench test fails or displays unusually low speeds, use this troubleshooting checklist:

: Supports up to 20 concurrent network streams to simulate heavy load environments and stress-test router routing tables. How LANBench Works: The Client-Server Model
