Not sure if your internet connection’s as fast as it should be?
If you have an ADSL Broadband connection and you would like to check if it’s delivering the speed that it’s supposed to do, then use our free broadband speed checker.
How it works
Simply click on the “Start Speed Test” button and our test will check your current broadband upload and download speeds. The check will start by downloading a file and will measure your download speed.
Once the download has finished, the broadband speed test will try to upload a file and will measure your upload speed.
If you want to get accurate results then you should not use your internet connection for any other applications once the speed checker is running.
The broadband speed is measured in kbps (kilobits per second). Usually, when you purchase your broadband package the ISP gives your projected speed in Mb. 1 Mb is 1024 kilobits.
How accurate is the speed checker?
We have tried to build the speed checker as accurate as possible but there are several factors that can affect the test. The speed checker measures the speed at the time of the test so if your network is running slow at that time then speed checker will report a slow speed. This does not necessarily mean that your internet connection is slow at the other times.
How long does it take the speed checker to complete?
About 20 seconds.
