Check Your Internet Speed

Find out how fast is my internet connection really is. Use a reliable speed test tool to measure your current download speed and upload speed. Running a speed test is simple.

Understanding Your Results

  • Download Speed (Mbps): How quickly you can receive data (like streaming, browsing, or downloading). The higher, the better. This is a key part of any download speed test.
  • Upload Speed (Mbps): How fast you can send data (for video calls, uploading files, or gaming). Again, higher is better. An upload speed test or upload speed check measures this.
  • Latency / Ping (ms): This is the delay or reaction time of your connection. Lower is better, especially for gaming and real-time chats.
  • Jitter (ms): This shows how much your latency varies. Low jitter means your internet connection is more stable.
Not sure what the numbers from your internet speed checker mean? Wondering what a good internet speed actually is? No worries—Geeks Canberra can help you make sense of your internet speed test results (whether it’s a general internet test, NBN speed test, or wifi speed test) and figure out if you’re getting the speeds you’re paying for from your broadband speed test. We’ll explain your net speed in plain English.

Common Internet Problems & Quick Fixes

Experiencing slow internet speed, poor Wi-Fi speed, or connection drops? Before calling for help, try these common fixes after you test my internet speed:
  1. Restart Modem & Router: Unplug both for 60 seconds, then restart the modem first, followed by the router. This often resolves temporary glitches affecting your internet connect-ivity.
  2. Check Router Placement: Ensure your wireless internet modem router is central, open, and away from obstructions or interference sources that could hinder wireless internet access.
  3. Reduce Device Load: Too many devices consuming bandwidth simultaneously can slow things down for everyone.
  4. Test Wired vs. Wireless: Perform a speed test wireless internet vs. a wired connection. A direct Ethernet connection bypasses potential Wi-Fi issues and helps isolate the problem. A wifi tester or wifi testing process often involves this comparison.
If problems persist after these steps and your internet connection test still shows issues, it might be time for expert help.

NBN Speeds & Plans

Most Aussie internet runs on the NBN. Picking the right NBN speed tier (like NBN 50 or NBN 100) is crucial for good performance. The type of NBN technology at your address (FTTP, FTTN, HFC, etc.) also affects what speeds you can get. Doing an NBN speed check or NBN speed test will show you how your connection is performing.

Geeks Canberra can give you a hand with:

  • Understand your NBN connection type.
  • Advise on the best NBN speed check plan for your household or business bandwidth needs.
  • Troubleshoot NBN test speed issues and perform an NBN speed test diagnostic.
  • Help interpret results from a speed test NBN.

Optimise Your Network Hardware

Your modem, router, and overall Wi-Fi setup are critical for good network speed. Your wireless internet modem router is the core.
  • Routers: The heart of your home network. Upgrading to a newer standard like Wi-Fi 6 can significantly boost wifi speed and reliability.
  • Modems: Connects you to the NBN or your ISP.
  • Mesh Wi-Fi Systems: Provide seamless Wi-Fi coverage in larger homes, eliminating dead spots found during wifi testing.
  • Wi-Fi Extenders: Extend range but can sometimes reduce speed.
Need help choosing, setting up, or optimising your wireless internet modem router or mesh system? Want to ensure your network test shows optimal performance? We’ve got you covered.
