Speed and latency test
Measure from two or three places and the results show where the speed is being lost: the line into your home, the router, or the Wi-Fi in between.
1. Where are you testing from?
One number on its own says little. The same test from two places shows where the speed goes.
2. Run the test
Cabled to the router
The cleanest reading of what reaches your home. Turn the computer’s Wi-Fi off first.
Reliable up to about 250 Mbps. Ideal for comparing rooms. Uses up to about 60 MB of data.
Rather use another test? Run Speedtest by Ookla or Cloudflare speed test from this spot, then choose "Type in numbers".
What this test can and cannot measure
A test that runs inside a web page is reliable up to about 1000 Mbps in full mode and 250 Mbps in quick mode. That covers most plans, and it is all you need for comparing rooms. For a faster plan, or a second opinion, use a dedicated test and type the numbers in here.
The test runs in your browser against Cloudflare’s network, which has servers in every Australian capital, using Cloudflare’s open-source measurement engine. It sends and receives blocks of data and times them.
It measures delay twice: once with the line idle, and again while data is flowing. The second figure is the one most speed tests leave out, and the one that matters for games and calls.
The quick test uses up to about 60 MB. The full test can use far more on a fast connection, so avoid it on mobile data. Cloudflare receives the measurements; this site keeps your results in your browser only.
Your plan speed
Optional. It lets the results say whether the line is delivering.
What your results say
No tests yet
Start with a cabled test at the router if you can. Then test on Wi-Fi next to the router, and again where it is slow.
