End-to-end throughput

Network bottleneck calculator

A connection is only as fast as its slowest stage. Compare the full path and identify what actually limits performance.

1,000 Mbps effective

Router throughput limit the path to approximately 1000 Mbps instead of the 2000 Mbps target.

How to use this result

  • Use measured or specified routing throughput, especially when IDS/IPS is enabled.
  • Wi-Fi client rates are variable and usually lower than advertised link rates.
  • Upgrading a stage above the current bottleneck will not improve the complete path by itself.
