1. A network diagnostic system comprising:

  • a first tier that includes;

    a network diagnostic module configured to generate one or more network diagnostic statistics;

    the network diagnostic module being configured to, when connected to a first link transmitting data at a first data transmission rate, automatically apply the first data transmission rate to receive first data from the first link and generate one or more first network diagnostic statistics using at least a portion of the first data when the network diagnostic module is in sync with the first link and to generate one or more second network diagnostic statistics when the diagnostic module is not in sync with the first link;

    the network diagnostic module being configured to, when disconnected from the first link and connected to a second link transmitting data at a second data transmission rate that is different from the first data transmission rate, automatically apply the second data transmission rate to receive second data from the second link and generate one or more third network diagnostic statistics using at least a portion of the second data when the network diagnostic module is in sync with the second link and to generate one or more fourth network diagnostic statistics when the diagnostic module is not in sync with the second link;

    a second tier configured to collect statistics generated by the diagnostic module; and

    a third tier configured to provide visualizations of the collected statistics.
