    I watched him interconnect buildings then run Windows file transfer to test it.

    If you’re mainly going to use a network connection to transfer files between Windows computers, then transferring files between Windows computers is going to be the most accurate benchmark possible.

      If you’re testing throughput of a network then you use a tool that tests throughput. Want to know why he didn’t? He’s probably never heard of iperf because he’s a fraud. Windows file transfer is not accurate and can be effected by drive speeds. It’s insane to me how dumb some people are that watch his videos. That now includes you. The brain rot his channel has caused is real, I can’t imagine saying windows file transfer is an accurate measure of throughput, lmao. You’re an imbecile. This is exactly why I say LTT has done more harm to the tech community than anything. He has you believing windows file transfer is a legitimate measure of throughput! Ahahahahaha!

      And the fact he would be running Windows tells you all you need to know about his tech expertise. Windows is a joke of an OS with laughable workflows and no customization. Dude is a warehouse employee that got a cult YouTube following from dropping hardware, he knows nothing about tech. Almost every video I’ve watched of his has me cringing over his incompetence, it’s insane someone that gets so much constantly wrong has amassed such a following. But I guess, most people are just really that dumb, and punchable face thumbnails with click bait titles are enough to gain subs.

        Their entire purpose for installing the interconnect was for transferring video files for editing. If that’s the only thing it’s going to be used for, there is no better test than doing exactly that. Iperf isn’t going to tell you the windows file transfer speed, only Windows file transfers will.

        I hate the guy too. He’s a smarmy jackass that thinks he knows everything. I can’t stand watching him. Unfortunately even idiots get things right on occasion. This was one of those times.
