Network Emulator Toolkit

Written by M.Pol on January 14, 2010. Posted in Microsoft, VMware

Searching for a tool to simulate a poor network connection? Here is the solution. It’s called Network Emulator Toolkit (NEWT) and is available in a 32 Bits version and a 64 Bits version.

Download.
Network Emulator Toolkit 32-Bits.
Network Emulator Toolkit 64-Bits.

There is a new version of this tool, see the comment from Lonny Kruger. He wrote a blog about it. http://blogs.msdn.com/lkruger/archive/2009/06/08/introducing-true-network-emulation-in-visual-studio-2010.aspx

OMG I was looking for this everywhere, thank you very much!

Is it possible for you to upload the latest version though? The one I use at work is from the latest Games for Windows – LIVE SDK. It has a newer installer (digital signature from March 2008 instead of January 2008) and a file version (in Explorer) of 2.1.3.1 instead of 2.1.3.0.

The links are for the NEW toolkit which has been gone for over a year. The latest version is delivered and integrated with Visual Studio.Net 2010. see my blog for more information http://blogs.msdn.com/lkruger/archive/2009/06/08/introducing-true-network-emulation-in-visual-studio-2010.aspx

The official release of NEWT is released in VS2010 as Network Emulation. Currently, VS2010 only supports using Network Emulation while performing a Load Test or some other type of automated test. However, I have created a simple UI that allows you to select a Network Profile and emulate that profile without having to fire up VS2010 and starting a test. Please see my blog at http://blogs.msdn.com/lkruger for more details.

Does anyone have any documentation for NEWT?

The link no longer seems to work above – says I don’t have permission to download it from your account.

I’ve change the download links, Microsoft changed my skydrive files. Al the Network Emulator files are gone. Now it should work again.
