Internet Speed Test
Test your internet connection speed, latency, and stability directly from your browser. Measure real download speed, upload speed, ping, and jitter using controlled test endpoints — no app required.
Measure your real download speed, upload speed, ping, and jitter — directly from your browser.
The test will use a small amount of data (typically 50–200 MB) to measure your speed accurately.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a good internet speed?
For general browsing and streaming HD video, 25 Mbps download is typically sufficient. For 4K streaming or large households, 100 Mbps or more is recommended. Remote work with video calls benefits from at least 10 Mbps upload.
What is ping and why does it matter?
Ping (latency) is the time it takes for a signal to travel to a server and back, measured in milliseconds. Lower is better. Below 20 ms is excellent for gaming; under 50 ms is good for video calls. High ping causes noticeable lag.
What is jitter?
Jitter measures how consistently your latency stays stable. A jitter of under 5 ms is excellent. High jitter (above 30 ms) causes choppy audio and video in calls, even if average ping is acceptable.
What is the difference between Mbps and MB/s?
Mbps (megabits per second) is the standard unit for network speed. MB/s (megabytes per second) is used for file sizes and storage. Since 1 byte = 8 bits, divide Mbps by 8 to get MB/s. A 100 Mbps connection downloads at roughly 12.5 MB/s.
Why is my Wi-Fi slower than my internet plan?
Wi-Fi introduces overhead from signal interference, distance from the router, and the number of connected devices. Running the test with a wired (Ethernet) connection typically shows results much closer to your plan's rated speed.
Why does my speed change between tests?
Network speed fluctuates based on congestion at your ISP, time of day, the number of active users on your local network, and server load. It's normal to see 10–30% variation between tests.
Does a VPN affect speed test results?
Yes. A VPN routes all traffic through an additional server, typically reducing speed by 10–50% depending on the VPN service, server distance, and encryption overhead. Disable your VPN before testing for your raw connection speed.
How accurate is a browser speed test?
Browser-based speed tests are accurate enough for most practical comparisons. They measure the full end-to-end path from your device to the test server. Native applications may show slightly higher results because they bypass some browser overhead, but the difference is usually small.
