10gbit port questions

djb1829 · Sep 14, 2021

Hi

I recently acquired

32 core INTEL XEON server
64gb DDR4 ram
8TB SATA
10gbit port

However speedtest-cli seems to only really pick up a speed test of around 1500 Mbit/s symmetrical

Anyone else have a dedicated server that is on a 10gbit port?
It is definitely connected to a 10gbit as it says it is when I run command ethtool on centos.

It does say auto negotiation is on for the connection so I guess it only grabs the bandwidth when it actually needs it or ?

Appreciate it if anyone can shed some light on this for me.

Thanks it's the first time I've had a server with a 10gbit port lol

Speedtest is not accurrate, since many of servers added from some companies there just to advertise their company don't even have 1Gbps and or shared. I would recommend to try iperf test or this script, make sure you have curl, wget installed in your server:

Code:

curl -sL yabs.sh | bash -s -- -fg

See attached screenshot

Im not complaining it's like almost 9gbit

I managed to get speedtest to work properly now I had a old version installed I think.

For those that want to check their speeds using Ookla speedtest.net here is the link

speedtest.net/apps/cli

By the way other than just the web hosting what else do you think I could host which will best utilize the 10gbit port I have here?

Thanks

Assuming your 10G port is limited in how many TB? Otherwise maybe plex, torrenting streaming

32 core Intel Xeon
64gb DDR4 RAM
8TB SATA HDD
United States east coast located
10gbit port - 200TB monthly bandwidth

Right now I'm running cPanel on it only.
