slow

This bash script offers quick shortcuts to simulate slower network connections. It is useful when you need to simulate a wireless network on a Linux network server, especially when you are using a virtual machine guest on your local machine or in the cloud.

slow 3G                   # Slow network on default eth0 down to 3G wireless speeds
slow reset                # Reset connection for default eth0 to normal
slow vsat --latency=500ms # Simulate satellite internet  with a high latency
slow dsl -b 1mbps         # Simulate DSL with a slower speed than the default

slow modem-56k -d eth0 # Simulate a 56k modem on the eth1 device. eth0 is unchanged.

	# If you use Anaconda, it is really easy to accidentally install packages
	# into the base environment. Head that off at the pass.
	# However, allow installs in a pip virtual environment.
	#
	# Allow for an override if you run these commands with a CONDA_PROMPT_OVERRIDE variable set,
	# as in:
	#
	# CONDA_PROMPT_OVERRIDE pip install powerline-shell
