I need to connect to the internet from home and I would like to have a software to test the connection, in terms of speeds and stability. I know that there are many webpages that allow to test the speed of the network, but I would like to find something that would give me more information about the stability of the network. I have experienced for other networks that the connection may be extremely unreliable, in the sense that it may be relatively fast, but with many interruptions, disconnection/reconnections. I know that I can ping some address from the terminal, and there is also some webpage utility that does the same, and see if the network is dropping, but I would like to know a step further from this.
The motivation is that for my work I need to connect to a remote server through VNC connection, so I need a stable and fast network. Now I have to change apartment and with the collaboration of the neighbour (that has a fast connection), I would like to test the network, in order to evaluate the network in the new building.
Moreover, I would like to know if there is a software that is able to collect the data about the stability of the network over an entire day, and show the trends as a function of the time
