LAN Speed Test (Lite) measures local area network transfer speeds by writing a file of any size to a folder of your choice, then clearing Windows' file cache (otherwise read times would be skewed). Next, it reads the file back, clears the cache again, deletes the file, and finally displays the results.

DownTester tests your Internet download speed by connecting and downloading from multiple locations. It will sequentially test the download speed of URLs that you choose, going to the next after specified number of seconds has been elapsed or after it downloads the specified amount of KB according to your preferences.

DownTester can also do a more limited test the download speed of your local network (for example: \\MyComp\myfile.zip). Because the program uses the number of bytes read from the file, instead of counting the number of bytes transferred over the network, this may not be an accurate speed test. A slow connection may be caused by computers on your network and not your network hardware.

BluetoothView is a small utility that runs in the background and monitors the activity of Bluetooth devices around you. For each detected Bluetooth device, it displays the following information: Device Name, Bluetooth Address, Major Device Type, Minor Device Type, First Detection Time, Last Detection Time etc. BluetoothView can also notify you when a new Bluetooth device is detected, by displaying a balloon in the taskbar or by playing a small beep sound.

Created for Windows XP/SP2, Windows Vista and Windows 7. "Other versions of Windows don't provide a build-in support for Bluetooth, and thus BluetoothView cannot work with them."

RedEyes is a powerful host and network monitor designed for testing performance and availability of hosts connected to the LAN or Internet (workstations, servers, routers, etc) with an IP address, as well as services running on these devices that work with TCP and alert administrators in case of failure of these devices or services.

WinsockServicesView displays the details of all Winsock service providers installed on your system. For every Winsock service, the following information is displayed: Display Name, Status (Enabled/Disabled), DLL Type (32-bit or 64-bit), DLL Filename, DLL Description/Version, and Created/Modified Time.

WinsockServicesView also allows you to easily disable/enable a Winsock service provider.

GoPing is a graphical ping tool. It pings a host in multithreaded mode with specified packet size, timeout and interval (supports extremely low intervals - 20ms). Allows user to save and load collected data for future review.

ip2c (IP address to country) helps determine the country associated with a specific address by querying the five main WHOIS servers responsible for major world regions. The program tries to establish the most authoritative location for the IP specified and then return the country's two-letter TLD, the extended country name, its world region, and a description of the organization managing IP (when available).

The program can also process a list of IPs stored in a comma delimited file and generate a new file with the country fields added to it. The program is fast, multi-threaded, and queries all the servers in parallel to speed up the overall response time.

WinSock Repair resets the Windows Sockets API (WinSock for short) configuration to defaults or clean state. This service defines how networking software should access network services. Many users come into contact with Winsock after experiencing connection problems that are usually related to this API. The connection problems Winsock Repair can solve include losing network connections, DNS lookup problems, websites becoming unavailable, limited network connections plus many more.

Note: New version has a new name: Complete Internet Repair. Linking to Softpedia for old version.

AdapterWatch displays useful information about your network adapters: IP addresses, Hardware address, WINS servers, DNS servers, MTU value, Number of bytes received or sent, The current transfer speed, and more.
In addition, it displays general TCP/IP/UDP/ICMP statistics for your local computer.
