How does the speed checker work?
Our speed checker downloads a file from the server and measures how long
your connection takes to download it. The size of the file will be different
according to your line speed.
How accurate is 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.
Why the download or upload test does not work?
If you have a firewall or antivirus software installed that is not configured properly,
then it may happen that speed checker will not work correctly. Try disabling the
firewall / antivirus when you are running the speed checker. After the test is
complete do not forget to turn it back on so you stay protected.
How long it takes the speed checker to complete?
About 20 seconds.
