bertest <arguments> > rx_1.dat

Running GNU R

Now run ./analyze example.dat (replace example.dat with your datafile name). example.ps and example.pdf will be generated.

Display the resulting Postscript or PDF and go to page 11. There you can see filtered measurement of the packetloss. Read the higher value of the two. Unfiltered values are on page 1.
