How does it work?
The speed test application will measure how long it takes to download a small file. It will then upload a file to test your upload speed.
Speeds are measured in Kilobits per second (kbps). 1000kbps is approximately 1 Megabit per second (Mbps).
For best results:
Please close all other applications while the speed checker is running. Ensure there are no other devices using your Wi-Fi network which are also running web applications.
For a more accurate result, run the test a few times and then calculate your average speed.
