About FAST.com

FAST.com speed test gives you an estimate of your current Internet speed. You will generally be able to get this speed from leading Internet services, which use globally distributed servers. Download speed is most relevant for people who are consuming content on the Internet, and we want FAST.com to be a very simple and fast speed test. When you click the “Show more info” button, you can see your upload speed and connection latency (ping). FAST.com provides two different latency measurements for your Internet connection. “unloaded” and “loaded” with traffic. The difference between these two measurements is also called “bufferbloat”. To calculate your Internet speed, FAST.com performs a series of downloads from and uploads to Netflix servers and calculates the maximum speed your Internet connection can provide. FAST.com will test Internet speed globally on any device (phone, laptop, or smart TV with browser).

Download speed measured in megabits per second (Mbps), how fast your computer can receive data from a server on the Internet. Upload speed, how fast your computer can send data to a server on the Internet. Ping, also known as “latency”, measures the reaction time of your Internet connection by calculating the time it takes between sending out a request to getting a response. Measured in milliseconds (ms), ping indicates how responsive your Internet connection is. Jitter, based on multiple measures of pings, jitter measures the consistency of your Internet connection. Also measured in milliseconds, the smaller the jitter, the more stable an Internet connection. Speed Test works with a global network of over 5,000 testing servers. The app selects a server nearby your current location with a fast ping, which usually indicates a reliable Internet connection with good throughput.

An internet speed test measures the connection speed and quality of your connected device to the internet. It does so by running multiple consecutive tests that analyze different aspects of your internet connection, namely ping (latency), download speed, and upload speed. Each of these values represents the connection's specific qualities, which you can read more about in the paragraph after the next. These should help you understand the final speed test results. But before we get to these, we first want to discuss how to perform each test. The download measurement is performed by opening multiple connections to a server and simultaneously starting the download of a large data file on all connections. This approach ensures that the entire bandwidth of the internet connection is maxed out, and thereby the maximum data throughput can be measured. Recording the data throughput against measurement time finally yields the available internet speed for downloading data.

    "A fairly simple way to perform a Speed Test."

    Posted 2023-05-10

    Pros: It is an essential platform to be able to have full access to the speed that is handled within your business Network, thanks to this platform you will be able to know the real speed that your Network is supporting on your computer or your mobile device. This platform is quite good since that allows obtaining a study of the network speed in a few seconds, without having a high consumption in the device and without presenting confusion in the users, this platform offers an almost immediate result, since it only takes five seconds to carry out a study of the speed of the network. Another positive aspect of this platform is the ease of use, since you only have to open it in your browser and the platform will automatically carry out a study of the Internet speed that takes a few seconds, this study is quite precise and offers exact details about the actual download speed of your network. In general, the design of this platform is completely easy to use, in addition, you can perform all the Network analyzes that it says without any type of limit, this platform is completely free, it allows you to perform a Network Speed Test as many times as necessary , without any limit.

    Cons: The main negative aspect of this platform is that there is no application downloaded for mobile devices, this means that any user who is using a mobile device must use their browser to access this website and perform the speed test of their Network, it is necessary to create an application to download for mobile devices to improve access to this platform from the mobile phone. Another negative aspect of this platform is that it offers us details about the quality or the test of the network, since it allows us to visualize the upload speed and it does not allow us to collect details about the number of packets lost in this network nor does it offer details about the latency in MS.

    Overall: Fast.com is a relatively useful platform to be able to carry out a Speed Test on any Network that is being used without having to access a complex website to use, this platform is used to carry out various Speed Tests quite quickly, and obtain a download speed result in a matter of seconds. I consider that this platform has been very useful to be able to perfect the way in which we obtain a study of the real speed of our Network used in the company, thanks to the platform, obtaining a result for each Test without waiting so long for it to be processed. In general, this platform has performed great since it offers us limited to perform various Network Speed Tests without any kind of limit, in addition, the general design of this platform helps to make it quite easy to use for new users. I consider that I have had a complete experience although I also consider that this platform should implement more advanced details to each test to know the upload speed and the details of the PL.
