I am looking for a simple tool that I can monitor available bandwidth on my 3 different ISPs in real time. Not what is being used, but what is available…like a speed test, but one that can show historical data. I have PRTG but that shows what is being used. I also do not want it to constant speed tests, that would take up everything I have. I know I could just as easily do a spreadsheet and fill it in. Anyone maybe have a Powershell script that would do this, do a speed test and then fill in results on a spreadsheet?

    Good point. Though without knowing the exact details, it’s hard to make a call on what the best strategy is.

    If it was me, and I was trying to contest claims as to available bandwidth, I’d probably still be running a regularly scheduled speed test (if nothing else then at least to regularly saturate the connection), and then talk to the ISP with both the speed test results and the bandwidth graph to show as complete a picture as possible.
