Tools for degrading my network connection?


I've written some applications than heavily use network, and I would like to test it over a slow network. I'm looking for a tool to simulate these kind of connections.

I'm only interested in Windows tools.


Solution

  • I've used Traffic Shaper XP on my XP dev box at work. It seems to handle any connection (not just HTTP). It wasn't perfect, but worked well enough for the tests I was doing. If you're on Windows maybe it'll do enough for you.
