This tool has been taken offline, and the code has been updated and released as a Google Code project at http://code.google.com/p/modem-emulator/

More information on this change is available at http://www.addedbytes.com/blog/modem-emulator-open-sourced/

Hello! This tool seem to be not working due to endless loop of redirections. My Firefox told me about this. IE just told that the page cannot be displayed.
Try to fix some settings please. I have used the emulator before and i find it useful. Thus i'd prefer to use it again.
Thanks

Just came across this url after about 8 months. Recently I've been working with mobile phones a lot and just thought surely a good option would also be speeds to mimik GPRS, EDGE and 3G connections.

Am still wanting to see the source code too!

Awesome tool! One question though... Does your "emulator" support gzip compression? As in, does it send the proper headers so that the server being tested sees it as a compression-enabled browser? The reason I ask is that the pages I'm testing seem to load at nearly the same speed, with or without compression. I even see a noticeable difference viewing those same pages directly over my cable connection, so the lack of any noticeable difference viewing them through your emulator has me wondering about compression support.

Don't know if the code of my site is so weird, but viewing it through the emulator all the background-images were missing. Or is this deliberate ? Otherwise I think the emulator is fantastic and a great idea, for sure .. thanks !

I was reading another thread elsewhere about BW and started linking about how my dial up customers saw my sites. I have long tried to ensure text came first on a page then small pictures then bigger ones. Your proxy tool provides a great service and those posters above that be-little people without xDSL have no idea that a great number on people with money to spend on this planet do not live in cities and places close enough to get xDSL without getting a satellite feed - in the mean time they can come and buy from me and my slow friendly site. Thank you Dave C - a great help.

Excellent tool. Will certainly use it to do some testing myself. Would love to take a peek under the hood at the source and get it running locally!
