Checking NIC speed in Windows 98

Post by StarPhoenix »

I have been asked to check the network speeds on some of the machines in a certain department.

As luck would have it, some of them are windows 98 boxes.
Windows 98 does not seem to offer the same handy system tray icon from which one can check one's network status.

Do you know of any way I can do this under Windows 98?

Thank you

Unfortunately that only works in Windows XP and above.
