Our Internet speed test will first determine your location to find the test server that is closest to you.Once the nearest test server has been determined, we will ping that server, measuring the roundtrip response time.Next, we will begin the download test, opening multiple server connections, and attempting to download a small sample of data. This stage of the test measures the time it takes to capture the sample data, and the required network resources used in that capture. If there is additional room detected, we will increase the number of open connections to download additional data, measuring how much your Internet connection is able to accomplish simultaneously.Finally, we process your upload capacity, measuring the speed of data uploads from your device to the test server.
