How Our Speed Test Works
Download Speed
Measures how quickly data is transferred from the internet to your device. Higher download speeds mean faster web browsing, smoother streaming, and quicker file downloads.
Upload Speed
Measures how quickly data is transferred from your device to the internet. Important for video calls, posting to social media, and cloud backups.
Ping
Measures the response time between your device and a server. Lower ping means less delay (latency) and better performance for online gaming and video calls.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a good internet speed?
A “good” internet speed depends on your needs:
- Basic browsing & email: 5-10 Mbps download
- HD video streaming: 15-25 Mbps download
- 4K streaming & gaming: 40-100 Mbps download
- Multiple users/devices: 100+ Mbps download
Upload speeds of at least 5 Mbps are recommended for video calls and uploading large files. Ping under 30ms is ideal for gaming.
Why is my speed test result different from my internet plan?
Several factors can affect your speed test results:
- Wi-Fi versus wired connections (Ethernet is more reliable)
- Network congestion during peak usage times
- Other devices using your connection simultaneously
- Router or modem limitations
- ISP throttling or network issues
- Distance from your ISP’s service point
For the most accurate results, use an ethernet connection and run tests at different times of day.
How often should I run a speed test?
It’s a good idea to test your internet speed:
- When you first get a new internet service
- After upgrading your internet plan
- When you experience consistent performance issues
- At different times of day to compare peak vs. off-peak performance
- Monthly to monitor your service quality over time
Keep a log of your results if you suspect ongoing issues with your service provider.
What’s the difference between download and upload speed?
Download speed measures how quickly data is transferred from the internet to your device. This affects loading websites, streaming videos, and downloading files.
Upload speed measures how quickly data is transferred from your device to the internet. This affects sending emails with attachments, uploading videos, cloud backups, and video conferencing.
Most home internet connections are asymmetrical, meaning download speeds are faster than upload speeds. Fiber internet tends to offer more balanced speeds.
How can I improve my internet speed?
- Restart your router and modem
- Use wired Ethernet connections instead of Wi-Fi when possible
- Position your router centrally and away from obstructions
- Update your router’s firmware
- Reduce the number of devices connected to your network
- Check for bandwidth-heavy applications running in the background
- Consider upgrading your internet plan or switching providers
- Use a newer router that supports the latest Wi-Fi standards
