for online page load speed tests go to
webperf.org as they give response times, individual graphic load times blah blah
go into msdos and type
C:\WINDOWS>cd .. <return>
C:\>tracert 123.123.12.1 >> trace.txt <return>
obviously 123.123.12.1 is to be replaced by who you are pinging :-/
when it has finished, go to c:\ and locate your trace.txt to see how it performed.
