A system for measuring the throughput of a network. Blocks of data are transmitted (324) and the data rate of each block is determined (326). An accurate measurement is made by collecting and averaging the throughput of certain blocks (326). The system is illustrated in connection with a diagnostic unit connected to a call center. Upon the occurrence of a customer problem, a user is directed to a diagnostic web page. Once the user computer has accessed the web page (316), the diagnostic unit can either send blocks of data to the user computer (216) or can embed code in the web page that causes the user computer to send blocks of data (324) to the diagnostic unit.

L'invention concerne un système de mesure de débit de réseau. Des blocs de données sont transmis (324) et le débit binaire de chaque bloc est déterminé (326). On conduit une mesure précise par collecte et moyennage du débit de certains blocs (326). Le système est décrit en liaison avec une unité diagnostique reliée à un centre d'appel. Lorsque survient un problème en clientèle, l'usager est orienté vers une page Web de diagnostic. L'ordinateur de l'usager y (316) accède, et cette unité peut soit envoyer des blocs de données à l'ordinateur (216) soit imbriquer un code dans la page Web conduisant ledit ordinateur à envoyer les blocs (324) à l'unité.
