 Some iPerf server don't work, so if you receive an error when testing, try a different iPerf server. You can also try unofficial iPerf servers, but their location and availability may often change. Once you've configured the Server address, protocol and port, you can start your tests. You'll probably only use Server mode if you're testing an intranet VPN site. Some iPerf server don't work, so if you receive an error when testing, try a different iPerf server.

-Unfortunately, there are currently few reachable iPerf servers. It's important to use an iPerf server with geographical proximity to get accurate results. The above example was run on a 200Mb down 12MB up connection. However, as you can see, the results are far from accurate. Regardless, the IPerf tool can still be useful for things such as intranet VPN performance testing and tuning.+Unfortunately, there are currently few reachable iPerf servers.
