Speakeasy is a simple platform that allows you to check the speed of your internet connection. It has all of its servers based in the US and it uses those servers to perform a speed test of your internet connection.
The overall website is simple to use and it keeps a record of the all previously performed speeds test and also allows you to export them to a spreadsheet file for relative comparison. The CSV file includes the date and time of the scan, your IP address, the server location, and download and upload speed.
To analyze the Speakeasy speed test, we used a connection that is advertised to deliver 150 Mbps download speeds. On this particular day, we noted from using other speed tests that our connection was running a bit faster than that, which was confirmed by the Speakeasy test as well.
This speed test takes about 3.3 seconds to load on average, and the duration of the test runs around 37 seconds, both of which are comparable to most other popular speed tests. As for the speed of our connection, Speakeasy recorded a mean download speed of 175.9 Mbps, and an upload speed of 6.0 Mbps, which were both right in line with what we expected. Unfortunately, Speakeasy does not record ping times, which is quite the oversight seeing as most competitors do test pings.
Additionally, we appreciate the inclusion of the option to share results via social media and email. Speakeasy also stores test results on their website, so that anyone with an account can keep track of their speeds over time, and across multiple test locations. We always value secure websites when running these tests as well, which is another area Speakeasy excels in, thanks to the https protocol on their speed test web pages.
As Rani Molla reported recently in the Wall Street Journal, some ISPs are delivering download speeds up to 41 percent slower than they advertise. The figures were compiled by speed-test service Ookla, which owns Speedtest.net.
According to Ookla's figures, the folks in Idaho Falls, Idaho, realize only half the download speed their ISPs claim to provide. Internet users in London, Ky.; Huntington, W. Va.; and Odessa, Texas, don't fare much better: all receive information over their network at speeds far below what their ISPs promise.
When I tested more than a half-dozen network speed calculators, the results varied by a factor greater than 10: the lowest reported download speed was a snail's-pace 783Kbps using DSLReport.com's Flash-based test. Another test using the same service resulted in a download speed reading of 11.237Mbps.
The highest download speed test result I recorded was 13.06Mbps using the HTML5-based test at SpeedOf.me (shown at the top of this post). However, the same test generated a download speed of 4.87Mbps on the connection two days later.
(For the record, my ISP promises download speeds up to 12Mbps. I ran the tests in both Firefox and Google Chrome on a Windows 8.1 laptop; many of the services also test phone network speeds, but I didn't run any of them.)
Conversely, the results of the upload tests at the various services were consistently at or just under 2Mbps. The exceptions were upload-test results at DSLReports.com, whose testing was so inconsistent I ended up discarding all of the service's results.
I ran the tests at DSLReports.com about a dozen times: three times the download results were under 1Mbps, five times they were between 1Mbps and 4Mbps, twice they were around 8Mbps, and three times the download speed the test reported topped 10Mbps.
Many experts claim HTML5-based speed tests are more accurate than tests that use Java and Adobe Flash. Others point out that multithread tests such as those used by Ookla (Speedtest.net and branded by many ISPs) don't represent real-world network traffic as well as single-thread tests.
The most consistent test results were recorded at Speakeasy's Flash-based Speed Test and at TestMy.net's HTML5-based tester. Of course, the services' tests may be consistently wrong. After running several tests over a span of days, all of Speed Test's download results were within a few kilobits of 11.5Mbps. TestMy.net's download scores in both its single- and multithread tests exhibited a bit more range than those of Speakeasy's Speed Test, but they averaged about 11.2Mbps.
The results of the HTML5-based speed tests conducted at Bandwidth Place ranged from 5Mbps to 11Mbps, those at Toast.net exhibited a similar range, and the Flash-based tests at ZDNet's Broadband Speed Test recorded speeds from 5.8Mbps to 11.4Mbps.
Not surprisingly, the highest consistent speeds were reported when I ran the tests offered by my ISP, AT&T. The company's speed tests are provided by Ookla, as are the tests at many other network providers. (Note that the Java-based network tester at the FCC's Broadband.gov runs on the Measurement Labs platform, which doesn't support the Safari, Google Chrome, or Opera browsers. The FCC's test also requires that you supply your street address.)
With only one exception, all the download tests I ran at the AT&T Internet Speed Test and at Ookla's Speedtest.net indicated speeds of 11.5Mbps or greater. One of the dozen-or-so tests recorded a download speed of 10.4Mbps, and several of Ookla's Flash-based test results exceeded 12.5Mbps for downloads.
After conducting more than 100 network speed tests from many different providers over the course of several days, I'm confident my ISP is delivering speeds approximating -- and perhaps exceeding -- those it promised when I signed up for the service. Whether any of the speed tests I tried truly represent real-world network traffic is debatable.
HTML5-based speed tests such as those offered by SpeedOf.me and TestMy.net seem to have an advantage in that they require no additional software. If you suspect you're paying for more bandwidth than you're actually getting, you needn't trust your ISP's test results to make your case -- especially if you happen to live in one of your service's dead zones. Hello, Pocatello!
Internet speed is only part of the story. While conventional speed tests measure throughput, you should also test the Internet quality of your connection. Some providers may use old copper connections while others deliver your service using state-of-the-art fiber connectivity. These, along with other factors, could impact latency, jitter and packet loss. Plus, these affect your bandwidth quality. Depending on whether you are using your connection for VoIP, video conferencing, or mission-critical applications, you may need a higher quality service. Our Internet quality test does this for you and helps highlight potential risks to your business.
JitterTo measure the variation over time of latency across the network, you need a jitter test. High jitter values may cause voice packets to be delivered out of order, which can result in echo or talk-over effects.
Why is the location I usually pick missing from the City listBefore beginning, the speed test tool completes an initial latency test to our servers, and if a server does not respond within a specified time frame, it is not included in the City list.
How does security software and firewalls impact the testOur broadband quality test sends packets of empty data back and forth to your computer in order to test your line speed. Since we are a third-party sending a receiving a tiny data packet from your computer to perform the test, some ad block or security services interpret this as an attack and act accordingly. Temporarily lowering the severity should allow the test to work. Be sure to turn it back on before leaving our website.

Velocity File Assistant app. Velocity File Assistant for Android devices moves Velocity configuration files to a place where Velocity can read them. It is designed for devices using Android 11 and newer, which restricts apps from accessing common locations in the file system. When the Velocity File Assistant app is installed, each time the Velocity client is launched it will check the /sdcard/com.wavelink.velocity folder and copy any files there to a location where Velocity can read them. To download the Velocity File Assistant, see the Wavelink downloads page. For more information on using the Velocity File Assistant, see Velocity File Assistant.
Project improvements. Admins can now accelerate their projects with some useful additions. From within a project an admin can select the Capture Now button to immediately launch the Windows 10 client, using the configured host profile settings, and start capturing screens. At the end of the session the capture screens are automatically imported into the project. Secondly, the Deploy option can now also rapidly deploy to the local Windows 10 client to make testing a lot faster. This release also sees the addition of a style browser, allowing for the import of multiple screen design styles, and the ability to easily switch between them for the entire project.
When you sign up for DSL Internet service, you usually select a package that lets you use a certain amount of bandwidth. Bandwidth refers to the speed at which data moves from one place to another. Internet service providers typically measure bandwidth in Megabits per second (Mbps). If you have a low bandwidth allowance, it takes a long time to view websites, especially those with images, sound or video. Low bandwidth also affects how long it takes to download data, such as a movie or song. Even if you have low bandwidth, you can take steps to improve your connection.
Compare the test results to your DSL package. If your Internet service provider advertises a download speed of 10 Mbps, but the test indicates that your download speed is only 5 Mbps, contact customer service. Low connection speeds sometimes result from a faulty connection. If your provider finds a problem with your connection, they usually send someone to your home to repair it. 153554b96e
