Test your internet speed

What is a good internet speed?

Generally, 25 Mbps should be good enough speed for 1 or 2 users, and can handle HD video streaming, online gaming, web browsing and downloading. Families or small businesses with 3 or 4 users will consider at least 100 Mbps. Small growing business networks can easily exceed 500 Mbps for supporting multiple devices, users and services.

Slowness can be caused by issues with a modem or router, Wi-Fi signal, devices on your network saturating your bandwidth, etc.

Compare the speed test results against the Internet speed that you’re paying for (viewable in your account with the service provider, or maybe on your bill).

Before the test, be sure to stop any downloads, streaming, and other heavy internet activity within the network before running the test for more accurate results.
