Upload Speed: Learn how fast information can transfer from you, affecting actions like posting images on social media or sending large email attachments. Results are measured in megabits per second (Mbps).
Ping Speed: Understand the reaction time of your internet connection – a fast ping means a more responsive connection. Results are measured in milliseconds (ms).
Jitter Test: Evaluate the stability of your internet connection with the jitter test. Jitter measures the variability in the delay of data packets during their transmission. A lower jitter value indicates a more stable and consistent connection, crucial for activities such as online gaming and video conferencing. Results are measured in milliseconds (ms).

Why my internet speed test result be lower than expected?
Several factors can influence speed test results, including the processor load on your device, the load on your home network, the condition of your local exchange, the performance of your Internet Service Provider (ISP), and the server load at the time of the test. For the most accurate results, consider running the test on a device connected via a wired Ethernet cable.
What is a good internet speed?
A good internet speed depends on your specific needs. Generally, for web surfing, email, social media, and moderate video streaming, most broadband connections should suffice. If you engage in activities like multiplayer gaming or 4K streaming, we recommend speeds between 50-100 Mbps. Keep in mind that download speeds are typically 4 to 6 times faster than upload speeds. Interpret your results based on your internet usage requirements.
