Internet speed test

For the most accurate results, it’s best to run this test on a desktop or laptop computer that is connected to your modem with an Ethernet cable.

This plan supports wired connection speeds as high as 940 Mbps. Wireless speeds are always lower—typically between 250 Mbps and 500 Mbps with a device on the 5GHz network band, and about half that on a device using the slower 2.4 GHz band.

It's important to understand that the device you are using also plays a role in the results you see. For the most accurate speed test results, use a modern computer connected directly to your router via Ethernet and turn off or disable all other devices on your network while testing. Your results may vary, especially on older devices and wireless connections.

When using 1.5 Gigabit or faster plans, the intention is to provide fast speeds to multiple devices in your home at the same time. These devices, combined, can use the full 1.5 Gigabit of available bandwidth. It is possible for one device, connected by Ethernet and using a capable adapter/dongle, to achieve full speed. To support these speeds, your router, device(s), and network configuration must all be able to keep up.

Depending on your Ethernet adapter and plan, you should expect download speeds between 400 Mbps and 1.5 Gbps. Note, to achieve speeds over 1 Gbps on Ethernet, you will need to be connected to the 10G Ethernet port on the Network Access Hub and use an adapter or dongle that supports higher speeds. On Wi-Fi, your speeds are likely to be between 250 Mbps and 500 Mbps.

Your maximum internet connection speed can be affected by several factors, including, but not limited to:

These are only a few of the many reasons why one's Internet connection often does not achieve the theoretical maximum speed. Generally, Ethernet connections are faster and more reliable than Wi-Fi connections so, if possible, use that method of connection and a device supporting the maximum performance of your Internet service plan for the best results. Remember, too, that some websites you visit may have slowness issues on their end, unrelated to your internet speed. Use the speedtest above to determine your systems' actual performance.

: If you are a gamer, please note that download speeds from some popular gaming platforms such as Battle.net, Xbox Live, PSN, and Steam (etc.) may vary, so even if you have a faster internet connection, these platforms may limit your speed when you are downloading games.

The speed test on this page is most useful as a quick indicator of your internet connection's current performance.

The rate at which data is transferred from the internet to your device.

The rate that data is transferred from your device to the internet.

Download speed and upload speed are commonly measured in Megabits per second (Mbps).

The time it takes in milliseconds (ms) when a data request is sent between your computer and the internet. This is the most important parameter when we are talking about online games or video calls.
