If you want to check your speeds across your internal network, you can use some of the tools provided by Solarwinds. Otherwise, you can make use of iperf, connecting to endpoints at either side of your network.
If your question is regarding data rate over the wireless connection then there are a few ways of checking this. On Mac, there are several free tools you can use to check this. On Windows, you can use the command >Netsh WLAN show interface. Bear in mind your data rate will be a lot higher than your actual throughput
