WiFi Speed Test

Test the real WiFi speed reaching your phone or computer, then learn how to separate a wireless problem from an internet problem.

What this WiFi test measures

This test measures the complete path from this browser, through WiFi and your router, to the test server. It reports download throughput, upload throughput, ping and jitter. That makes it a realistic view of what this device can use at its current location—not merely the speed entering your home.

A WiFi result can be lower than your internet plan because wireless performance changes with distance, walls, interference, the router and the device itself. For a useful comparison, test next to the router and again where you normally use the device.

How to get a trustworthy WiFi result

Use the same device for each comparison. Pause large downloads, turn off a VPN for one controlled test, and leave the device in one position while the test runs. Repeat the measurement twice rather than treating one peak number as a guarantee.

Test near the router to establish a wireless baseline.
Test in the room where performance feels slow.
Compare 5 GHz with 2.4 GHz if your network exposes both.
Run a wired test when possible to check the provider connection separately.

WiFi speed versus internet speed

WiFi is the local radio link between your device and router. Internet speed is the capacity beyond the router supplied by your provider. A fast plan can still feel slow over weak WiFi, while excellent WiFi cannot make a 25 Mbps plan deliver 100 Mbps. The nearby, distant and wired comparisons reveal which side deserves attention.

Compare WiFi with a broadband bandwidth test

Interpret the pattern

What your WiFi comparison means

Use the same device and test server where possible. Change one condition at a time so the pattern points to a cause instead of creating another unexplained result.

Fast near the router, slow in another room

The internet connection is reaching the router, but distance, walls or interference are reducing the wireless link.

Improve WiFi coverage and placement

Ethernet is fast, WiFi is slow nearby

The provider connection is less likely to be the bottleneck. Check the WiFi band, channel congestion, router and device capability.

Work through the WiFi checklist

Only one device is slow

A device setting, old wireless adapter, VPN, background task or driver is more likely than a whole-network fault.

Diagnose the affected device

WiFi and Ethernet are both slow

Repeat controlled tests before changing the router. The modem, provider path, competing traffic or service plan may be limiting both.
