Internet Speed Test

Measure the performance of your current internet connection using Fast.com, a third-party service referenced in UBIT connectivity guidance.

Run the test

For the cleanest result, pause large downloads, cloud backups and streaming on this device. When possible, test once on Wi-Fi and once on a wired connection.

Wi-Fi signal quality, other users on the same network, VPN routing, device performance and the selected test infrastructure can all affect the result.

Interpreting the result

  • Download affects receiving webpages, video and files.
  • Upload affects sending files and your outgoing video or audio.
  • Latency affects responsiveness for calls, remote desktops and interactive applications.
