By default, this will run a single-thread upload speedtest (sending traffic TO the speed test server). As you can see in the screenshot, the upload speed this line happens to get is just over 19Mb/s.
 
===Variations===
There are variations you can do to test the speed as follows:
 
* Run a '''single-thread Download''' test: <SyntaxHighlight inline>iperf3.exe -R -P1 -c speedtest.aa.net.uk</SyntaxHighlight>
* Run a '''single-thread Upload''' test: <SyntaxHighlight inline>iperf3.exe -P1 -c speedtest.aa.net.uk</SyntaxHighlight>
* Run a '''10-thread Download''' test: <SyntaxHighlight inline>iperf3.exe -R -P10 -c speedtest.aa.net.uk</SyntaxHighlight>
* Run a '''10-thread Upload''' test: <SyntaxHighlight inline>iperf3.exe -P10 -c speedtest.aa.net.uk</SyntaxHighlight>
 
===What to look for:===
* The results should be near to the speed you'd expect for your line.
* You may want to run the tests at different times of day so as to see if there is any peak-time congestio0n affecting you.
* Hopefully the single and multi-thread tests give similar results - if not, there may be some sort of problem.
