Measuring your wireless router performance for Mojave and Windows 10

Image
It has been a long time that I have blogged and I guess New Year, new resolution, blog more and share knowledge to the next generation of techies. I was keen to experience on how to measure the effectiveness of my wireless router. I have a Spark HG659b (Huawei) modem router which supports 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz band. At the same time, I bought a Trendnet AC1900 TEW-818DRU router which supports the same dual band as Huawei. In today's world, speed is the thing, so I set out to workout the performance between this 2 routers using 2 laptops (MacBook Pro 13 inch Early 2015 and Dell XPS 13 9370).

It can be quite intimidating to use especially the first time as there isn't any example except the comma

In addition, I have also transformed the " " space with a non-space. The original value is in cell A2. Put the following command in cell B2: =SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE( A2 ,"A","2"),"B","2"),"C","2"),&

A big thank you to Mozilla for the invitation to Mozilla UK HQ in January 2013. The office in 101 St Martin’s Lane, London is pretty cool whereby Mozilla really spoil the developers by giving them great stuff - all on their account! It was an eye opening event whereby developers from Italy, France, Germany, Switzerland, India, Pakistan and surprisingly I am the only person from New Zealand (Ocenia).
