Are You Testing Your Internet Speed Correctly?

Don't Trust Just Any Number

Running a speed test seems simple, but many factors can skew the results.

Best Practices

Use a Wired Connection: Testing over Wi-Fi measures your Wi-Fi speed, not necessarily your internet speed.
Close Other Apps: Ensure no one is streaming 4K video in the other room.
Test to Multiple Servers: Your ISP might have a fast connection to a local server, but a slow one to a server overseas. Test both.
Check Ping and Jitter: Speed (bandwidth) isn't everything. Look at the latency metrics too.

Understanding Mbps vs MBps

ISPs advertise in Megabits per second (Mbps). File downloads show Megabytes per second (MB/s). There are 8 bits in a byte. So, a 100 Mbps connection downloads at roughly 12.5 MB/s.
