How accurate is this free internet speed test?

Our speed test is highly accurate and uses multiple test servers to measure your real internet connection speed. It tests download speed, upload speed, ping, and jitter using industry-standard methods. For best accuracy, close other applications using bandwidth during the test.

What is a good internet speed?

A good internet speed depends on your usage: For basic browsing and email, 5-10 Mbps is sufficient. For HD video streaming, 25+ Mbps is recommended. For 4K streaming and gaming, 50+ Mbps is ideal. For multiple users and devices, 100+ Mbps provides excellent performance. Our tool rates your connection quality automatically.

What do ping and jitter mean?

Ping measures latency - how quickly data travels to a server and back, measured in milliseconds (ms). Lower is better. Jitter measures the variation in ping times. For gaming and video calls, you want low ping (under 50ms) and low jitter (under 10ms) for smooth performance.

Why is my speed test different from what my ISP advertises?

ISPs advertise maximum speeds under ideal conditions. Real speeds vary based on: network congestion, WiFi vs wired connection, distance from router, number of connected devices, time of day, and server location. Our test shows your actual real-world speed. Run multiple tests at different times for a complete picture.

Is this speed test really free?

Yes! This internet speed test is completely free with no hidden costs, subscriptions, or signup required. You can run unlimited speed tests and access all features including real-time graphs, history tracking, and detailed network information at no charge.

Tips for Accurate Speed Tests

Close other applications: Stop downloads, streaming, or other bandwidth-heavy activities
Use wired connection: Connect via Ethernet cable for most accurate results (WiFi speeds can vary)
Test multiple times: Run tests at different times of day to see variations
Restart your modem/router: If speeds seem slow, try restarting your equipment
Position matters: For WiFi, stay close to your router and minimize obstacles
Check with ISP: Compare results with your internet plan's advertised speeds

Understanding Your Results

Download Speed: Most important for streaming, browsing, and downloading files. 25+ Mbps is good for HD streaming.
Upload Speed: Important for video calls, uploading files, and live streaming. 3+ Mbps is adequate for most uses.
Ping/Latency: Critical for gaming and video calls. Under 50ms is good, under 20ms is excellent.
Jitter: Shows connection stability. Under 10ms is ideal, under 30ms is acceptable.
Connection Quality: Our overall rating based on all metrics combined.
