Advanced Network Quality Test (ANQT) for Windows

Some time ago, I did not become a software developer. Instead, I became a system administrator and later an IT architect. I know the basics and wrote scripts in PowerShell and Python, but I am not a professional developer.

Now, in the time of AI and LLMs, I can make my ideas real.

Today I made one old idea come true. It is a simple application to test Internet access.

We all know speedtest.net. But Internet access is not just about speed. It is many things together: local network at home or office, DNS, provider, firewalls, etc.

I wanted to make an application that can run different tests and show the quality as percentage (%).

Today, I published the first version of "Advanced Network Quality Test" for Windows. It has a graphical interface (GUI).


One important feature: you can load different configuration files. Everyone can change it for their needs.

The source code is open for everyone - https://github.com/ruschestor/ANQT_Windows

Stack: Python 3, tkinter, dnspython, python-dotenv, psutil

This application was developed with the help of the AI agent "Cline" and the LLMs "z-ai/glm-5.2" and "deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-0731".

Hope it helps someone.
