The main purpose of LanSpeed2 is to monitor any traffic that is using a LAN adapter. (This is your Ethernet or Tokenring network card)

Now you can:
· See if anyone is accessing your computer without you knowing it.
· See why it takes so long to download a file or page.
· LanSpeed2 allows you to check if your connection is still functioning.
· Check your internet connection speed.
· Check your average download and upload speed.
· Check the amount of data you downloaded or uploaded

LanSpeed2 has an icon that sits in the taskbar so you can see if there is any upload or download activity.
Hover the mouse over the icon to see your current upload and download speeds.
Click the icon to open the main window or right-click it for more options.

The main window will show a graphical display for up- and download.
The range will auto-adjust to the highest visible value in the graph

Note:
If you are using Windows 2000, ME or XP there are no additional requirements.

If you are using Windows 98 or NT4 check that you have the Windows Installer installed on your computer. This component provides safe and secure software install/uninstall. If you do not have Windows Installer, you can download it free of charge.
