Internet Speed Test
Here is a list of some of the best free Internet Speed Test online services, websites, and software to test your network connection speed: 1] SpeedTest.net SpeedTest.net is arguably the most famous of the pack. We’ve been using this to test our Internet speed since the dawn of a very slow Internet. Everyone who has tested their Internet speed in the past should have used this one before, so if you haven’t already, then, Speedtest.net should be your first bet. To make it, even more, enticing, users can find a Speedtest.net app in Google Play for Android, iTunes for iOS, and the Windows Store for Windows Phone. 2] TestMy.net TestMy.net is another one of the great ones right here. We like this speed tester because it uses HTML5 instead of Flash or Java. Meaning, testing your speed via mobile is easier than usual. No more having to look at error messages telling you to download Flash. 3] SpeedOf.me SpeedOf.me is great, mainly due to its awesome user interface. The service utilizes 54 servers around the world, so users will always get the best possible results no matter where they are located. 4] BandwidthPlace.com BandwidthPlace.com is not as good as the others since it only has access to 17 servers around the world. However, depending on where you’re located, this speed test tool will no doubt get the job done. Still, we would recommend getting a second opinion from another source after seeing the results. 5] CNET.com CNET.com too offers an Internet Speed Test service. It is not my favorite due to its use of Flash, and it doesn’t support upload speed tests. Yes, we understand that for most people, the upload speed test is irrelevant, but for us folks, it is just as necessary in many cases. But hey, the graphs are pretty, so there’s one great reason to use it. 6] Fast.com Fast.com is a service from Netflix. 7] Google SpeedTest Google SpeedTest is a service from Google.com. 8] McAfee Speed Test McAfee Speed Test Internet Connection Speedometer tells you how fast or slows your internet connection speed is. 9] AuditMyPC Internet Speed Test AuditMyPC Internet Speed Test is designed to check the real bandwidth of your internet. 10] Speakeasy Speed Test Speakeasy Speed Test too will help test internet connection speed. 11] Network Speed Test Network Speed Test is an app from the Windows Store, and it was developed by Microsoft. We like it because it is simple and faster to gain access to because it sits right on our Start Menu. It also shows network information along with a history of past tests for future references. The downside for us is that it seems we are not close to the servers. Our ping was 99ms last time we tested while Speedtest.net showed us a ping of 14ms and better overall results.
12] Cloudflare
Cloudflare is a simple tool to test your internet speed and other related data. Simply visit the site and the testing starts. TIP: Here is a list of free HTML5 Bandwidth testing sites that don’t need Flash. Which one do you prefer to use?
