We pay attention to how much uplink and downlink bandwidth the node in mainland China can run. Here we use speedtest.net to run the three network nodes in mainland China. The approximate effect is as follows:

For the same test as above, we switched to the evening peak backbone network burst time period, which is roughly as follows:

The approximate effect of speedtest on some international nodes:

speedtest’s node test in Asia:

iperf3 tests data from several European and American nodes:

Same test, but switched to IPv6 environment:

Let’s take a look at the actual download speed. The file is stored on the test chicken, Guangzhou Telecom Home Bandwidth Test:

The same download, the time period is the evening peak, and then take a look at the effect:

Evening peak, Hubei Shiyan Telecom, download speed:

Evening peak, Sichuan Meishan China Unicom, download speed:

Latency test of multiple nodes of three networks in mainland China:

Telecom's outbound journey: directly connect to Telecom's San Jose node and then take NTT to Seattle's wowrack computer room

Outbound China Unicom: Directly connect to China Unicom’s San Jose node and then take cogent to Seattle
