About the service



The following parameters are measured when the test is running:

PING - The network delays in milliseconds (ms) when the data is sending between your computer and the external server. In other words, how quickly you receive a response when a request is made. Lower ping number indicates faster connection. Ping is important during real-time application use like video streaming, online calls, or online gaming.

Jitter - Jitter is the variation between response times. Good connections have a reliable and consistent response time. Higher jitter score, indicates less consistency in connection response times.

DOWNLOAD - Download shows the download speed of data to your device, expressed in megabits per second (Mbps). A higher value is better because a faster download means less waiting time for loading a web page.

UPLOAD - Upload shows how fast you can upload data to the internet with your connection. As with download, a higher number is better. A quick upload is important for online learning or for streaming.
