What are test servers?

In order to test your internet performance, the Meqyas Whitebox need something to test against. We maintain a whole fleet of "test servers" to fit precisely this purpose - these are the servers that the measurements are run to.

The test servers run special software designed specifically for measuring network performance when communicating with the test client (Meqyas Whitebox).

It's really important that the test servers are deployed close to you because the further the test server is from you, the higher the latency and the more we have to cross third-party networks, which can distort the results.
