Easy Way to Test Wireless Speed

I'm looking to test my wireless speed on my WNR3500L.  Is there an easy way to test it or freeware program that is not complicated?  Thanks.

Thanks, I did try jperf/iperf

Thanks, I did try jperf/iperf and I'm embarrassed to say this, but I couldn't figure it out. I went into my attached devices list while streaming from my computer to my bluray player and found the IP for the bluray player. But I'm not sure how to configure jperf. Would the bluray player be Client Server and if so, what port (I use a software DLNA server that uses port 1900). I check UDP for protocol but not sure if that's right.

You need to run iperf on both

You need to run iperf on both the client and the server.

Run "iperf -s" on the server, and run "iperf -c serveraddress" on the client. :)
