ISP providers like you to use this speedtest, because it is hopelessly unrealistic.
Beware.
Thaivisa gave me upload around 100kbps, speedtest.net say 600kbps.
Big difference, and I know speedtest is wrong, as I cannot use my webcam on some sites - too slow for them.
Really easy to use. Useful for diagnosing performance issues. One click is all you need to do, and results appear seconds later.
This site is a scandal. Always, AT&T ask me to test on this site. When I have terribly slow and connections dropping and can't even refresh any page and load just a html site, this would test for 2.3mbps to 2.5mbps. Other site tested my speed as 46kbps to 400kbps. But, this site always give the good result.
This should be scandal for some testing takes as long as 2 minutes and still it says 2.5mbps. May be they are only testing the burst speed?. But, ISP are using it for their advantage.
Speedtes.net takes money from ISPs to fake internet speed. My idea broadband connect is having a pathetic 0.2Mbps speed, this useless site is saying that my speed is 2.5Mbps. Even in Playstore this useless service is number one. They might have made 1000s fake reviews in Playstore. Use testmy.net to get good speed results.
A procedure intended to establish the quality, performance, or reliability of something, especially before it is taken into widespread use.
Whenever my internet speed is slow, this is where I go to figure out if it's a local or regional problem.
Have to use speedtest.net at least once a week and send results in to main office... Love this site. Easy to navigate and always and accurate result!
It is flash based and doesn't work on iOS devices... it's also slow to load!
speedof.me is somehow better... since it is html5 based with cool graphic!
The results given on this site are in favor of ISP's, incorrect and not consumers. They must be cheating or drowned into corruption with ISP's.
Itested on other sites and got pretty crappy results. So, I called Comcast and said so, they directed me to speedtest.net. First thing I told the guy was I noticed that it was testing at a local Comcast site, the site reports where you are sending info. He said he knew nothing about that. I ASK HIM if this was a Comcast site, he said ABSOLUTELY NOT. He then told me he checked my connection and all was in order and I should be at 20mb d/l and 5mb u/l tjhe previous sites said I was at about 5mb d/l and like 4mbu/l.
Low and behold, speedtest, net said I was blazing along at 21.82kbps d/l and 3962kbps u/l.
I fimnd this EXTREMELY SUSPECT.
So, beware would be my suggestion.
By far the best, fastest, most reliable website for speed testing and discussing ISP related issues!
I use several of these Intertnet speed sites and they always always agree including this one.
