How to get clumsy working for browser applications?

[cheers12]

Trying to use clumsy for a web application so I'm trying to get it working against something like speedtest.net but it reports no packet loss or latency when I last tested with clumsy 0.3-a with lag, drop, or throttle options. Is there a special flag or option that I need to enable to get clumsy working for web applications?

What filter are you using?

[cheers12]

preset localhost ipv4 all, filter is outbound and loopback

[apal0934]

With that preset, Clumsy is only affecting traffic your PC is sending to itself. If you want to affect all traffic in and out, try inbound or outbound, but I would recommend filtering against the specific IP of the web application you're testing (take a look at the preset "all ipv4 against specific ip").

Somewhat sidestepping here but in a browser you can actually use the browser's devtools. For example in Chrome:

• press F12 to bring up devtools
• Go to Network tab
• click "No throttling" drop down menu and select on of the presets or create a custom one

The browser will only throttle that specific browser tab but you'll have fewer throttling options (only latency and dl+ul speeds).
