Hi, I am currently working on a modification of TCP NewReno congestion control algorithm. It seems that I have been able to write a working module. Now, I am looking for a way to test the performance of the built-in congestion control algorithms and the new algorithm. I have heard about the NS-2 simulator, and I am trying to compile and configure it now, but that's just a statistical tool (from what I hear) and the results are far from reality (please correct me, if I am wrong). Please recommend a tool or way I can test the performance of the congestion control algorithm in a "real" environment (sender side - 2 Computers, one connected to the wireless network, other to a wire, receiver - one PC, running FTP server, both senders each sending a big file at the same time). I would like to get comparable performance results from each of the existing congestion control algorithm as well as the new one I have created by modifying the NewReno algorithm. Thank you in advance for your assistance. Best Regards, Karlis
