harlekkin, 19 May 2016Same here, but that might just be because my ISP "secretly"... moreMore likely they throttle everything unless they know it to give you a reading of how much so, like say speedtest.net

raj, 19 May 2016My test result from fast.com is 4 to 5.2 mbps max, but Sped... moreHmm an established, well known site for testing your speeds matches what your ISP says you should get? What a coincidence!
Surely they couldn't possibly give priority to your data when they detect you making use of the service, I mean... that shouldn't be right, right?

Tested in 4 different locations- On ethernet. Fast.com reported 1/3 the down speeds speedtest.net did...? So who's right?

My test result from fast.com is 4 to 5.2 mbps max, but Spedtest.net result is ±8 mbps which is what I paid for. So why different results, is it "To calculate this estimate, Fast.com performs a series of downloads from Netflix servers"...limited speed from Netflix?

Humaid, 19 May 2016The test results are far from being correct, with fast.com ... moreSame here, but that might just be because my ISP "secretly" throttles Netflix and YouTube speeds.

Anonymous, 19 May 2016Some problen is their. I am using 2g on my old nokia. Site ... moreThere is difference between Mb(Megabit) and MB(Megabyte)
1 megabit/second = 0.125 megabytes/second
Just saying, so some people can understand that most of internet providers like to set BIG numbers of speed when in real life its not that fast....
And they never use proper form of MB/s or mbps that is actually important.

This is brilliant. I don't need an app anymore to check my connection's speed, albeit only the download speed.

The test results are far from being correct, with fast.com I get 13 Mbps, where my actual speed goes over 80 Mbps.

Worth noting: It doesn't use Flash, so you can run it in a mobile web browser! Nice to be able to do a speed test without having to download an app.

But for us gamers , it is a must to know the ping (ms), Speedtest.net is still my choice.
