Speed Test Description
Download speed is measured in megabits per sec (Mbps), which indicates how fast your computer can download data from an Internet server. Upload speed is the speed at which your computer can send data to an Internet server. Ping, also known by "latency", measures your Internet connection's response time. It calculates the time it takes to get a response from you after you send a request. Ping is a measure of how responsive your Internet connection has been. It is measured in milliseconds (ms). Based on multiple pings, jitter is a measure of the consistency of your Internet connections. Also measured in milliseconds. The smaller the jitter, a more stable Internet connection. Speed Test is a global network that includes over 5,000 servers. The app will select a server near your current location that has a fast connection. This indicates a reliable Internet connection and good throughput.

Speedcheck
An internet speed test measures your internet connection speed and quality. It does this by running several consecutive tests that examine different aspects of your internet connection. These include ping (latency), upload speed, and download speed. Each value represents the connection's unique qualities, which you can find out more about in the paragraph following the next. These values should help you understand the final speed tests results. Before we get to these, let's first discuss how each test is performed. Download measurement is done by opening multiple connections to a server, and simultaneously starting the downloading of large data files on all connections. This ensures that all internet connections are available and the maximum data throughput can easily be measured. The internet speed available for downloading data can be determined by comparing the data throughput and the measurement time.

FAST.com
FAST.com speed test provides an estimate of your current Internet connection speed. This speed can generally be obtained from the top Internet services that use globally distributed servers. People who consume content online are most concerned about download speed. FAST.com is a simple speed test that allows them to determine if they can download the fastest possible speed. Click the "Show More Info" button to see your upload speed as well as your connection latency (ping). FAST.com offers two types of latency measurements for your Internet connections. "Unloaded" and "loaded with traffic. This is also known as bufferbloat. FAST.com uses a series of uploads and downloads to Netflix servers to calculate your Internet speed. FAST.com can test your Internet speed on any device (phones, laptops, smart TVs with browsers) worldwide.

Speed Check Light
Speed Check Light is an easy-to-use Internet testing tool. This application helps you to measure the downlink speed (download), uplink speed (upload) and delays in the transmission of packets (latency/ping/jitter). It has a simple user interface with many configuration options. Speed Check Light's main advantage is the ability to automatically adjust the testing algorithms to your connection type (WiFi, 2G/3G/4GLTE/5G mobile networks). This ensures high accuracy. You can choose the default server, a built-in map showing the coverage of mobile networks, history of results, detailed information about tests, IP/ISP addresses display, and the ability to filter and sort your results based on various criteria. Two standard units (Mbps or kbps), System clipboard, social networks handling (easy publishing the results to Facebook or Twitter), low demand for system resources.

Speedtest Pro
You can quickly test your network performance by accessing your toolbar. One-click testing of your Internet connection. It can show the user's network status in multiple angles. Speedtest Pro is a professional-grade speed test that can help users find the root cause of the problem. In seconds, the ping value could be measured and displayed. Check the download and upload speeds. Check the loading speed of the current webpage. You can open advanced options to choose whether you want to test the loading speed or not. It is the time taken by the computer to send data to the webserver and wait for it to receive feedback from the server. It is usually expressed as the network delay in online gaming. The higher the Ping value, the more severe the network delay and the slower the game runs. Traffic from upstream networks per unit of time. Normal broadband uplink and downstream are not equal. Upstream broadband speeds usually exceed the limit.
