Internet speed test app

Is their a good internet speed test app? I have "Speed Test for iPad". It gives such inconsistent results that I don't trust the results.

I have Speedtest XHD. seems to work pretty well.
As for inconsistancies, depending on how you are access the internet - and how you define inconsistant - you should count on it. Any app measuring this is going to be giving you a snapshot in time. and it will vary from test to test sometime by quite a bit.

Internet speed test app for Asha 311

Is there any internet speed test app for Asha 311? I tried the speed test from http://bsnlspeedtest.in but the result was very high. I have Airtel 3G and it always shows 3.5G.

If you want to check the max speed of your phone internet there are two methods.
1.
Check the speed in kbps while downloading any file using UC browser. Get UC browser from Nokia store or via www.ucweb.com
2.
Connect your phone as a modem to your pc and use any pc web browser and check the speed at http://speedtest.net or any other sites.
Hope this helps.

I am wondering if the data from data speed test apps affects my overall usage from my plan

Yesterday as we were coming home on the highway, i decided to test the connection speed using an app from the google play store. I downloaded it because I had about 11MB or so used that day and decided to use my data. Once it finished downloading and installed I opened it and begun a test. It gave me a 15mb download and 2mb upload result so I did one more test. As I was doing the second test I get an alert about my data limit I set up for the day to pace out the 2GB I have for the month. I went to check my apps and saw I used about 40-50MB since using the data speed test app. Do these tests count against my actual plan?

Yes speed tests count against your cap if as Ann says you;re using them to test you mobile data. I think this where I see people complaining about their caps being exceeded but claim they don't do anything. People don't realize that speed tests are going to use 50 MB and even up to 80 MB of data. You do just 1 speed test in a day and you will use 1.5 GB to 2.5 GB a month. And some people feel the need to do 3, 5, 10 tests a day.

Non-Flash based internet speed test sites for touch?

I'd like to test my internet speed directly from my touch. It seems like the speed test sites out there that I've found (like www.speakeasy.net/speedtest)use Flash which won't work with the touch. Does anyone know of any internet speed test sites that will work on the touch's Safari browser?

Great! Thanks for the info. The results seem to be lower than normal though. I could not get over 768k even with my 1.5mb cable connection here at home. I did find this site: http://i.dslr.net/tinyspeedtest.html which seems to test more accurately.

Internet speed test slow on MacBook Pro

I just moved into a new house and signed up for internet service with 100 mbps download speed. Sounds great! Except my newish (refurb purchased in Aug 14) MacBook Pro is only running a speed test with results between 2.92 mbps - 7.89 mbps. We've checked it against my husband's work computer which is an HP zBook which is getting results over 60 mbps. He also plugged in his computer directly to the modem and got 125 mbps!! His computer is lightning fast. Pages are loading in the blink of an eye. My MacBook is sluggish and taking a much longer time to load.
So, it's not our internet service. The problem is definitely with my MacBook Pro. It's even slower than my iPad. I've tried googling but I can't find anything about it and not sure where to start with fixing it. I'm not sure what specs I should include but my computer was advertised as having "the latest 802.11ac Wi‑Fi and Bluetooth 4.0 wireless technology".
Any suggestions?

802ac is the wireless WiFi.      WiFi issues may exist if you use 802.11g or 802.11b.   G is only 33 Mbps.   B is only 11 Mbps and is insecure.
MacBooks with a CoreDuo and or CoreSolo only supported 802.11g. You needed a Core2Duo to support 802.11n.    If you have a Core2Duo Mac, make sure the 8011n patch was applied to it.   Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac -> More Info or System Information to determine what sort of WiFi is your connection.
Note internet speed tests are not very reliable. And Mac OS X 10.6.7, if that's what you have is not able to run the latest Java, so its results could be skewed by the lack of the latest Java support.    It doesn't mean you can't get the speed though.   See this article about internet speed:

Internet Speed Test

I've got a E4200 and when running the internet speed test from the Cisco Connect software the download works fine and then it immediately fails on the upload test. Happens on various other internet speed test sites as well. However does work on speedtest.net.

Try the following steps:
A] With the help of Cisco Connect Software (if at all you have installed the router with the help of this software)
1] Open the software and go to the option which says "Router Settings"
2] Then click on the option which says "Advanced Settings" which will take you to the router's configuration page.
3] Then go to the Wireless tab, keep network mode as mixed,
For Channel Settings of 2.4 GHz you can make Channel Width to 20 MHz only and Channel to 6, 9, 11..
For Channel Settings of 5 GHz you can make Channel Width to 20 MHz only and Channel to 40 or 161...
B] If you haven't installed Cisco Connect then you can log on to the router's user interface using it's default IP address in the browser which is 192.168.1.1 and type in 'admin' as the password leaving the username field blank. This will take you to the router's web interface and then follow steps as mentioned above to make the changes.

E4200 Internet Speed Test

I have slow internet speed with certain websites so I tried running a internet speed test with Cisco Connect version 3 with my E4200 router. It did not run, but responded with a "website not found" message. How can I correct this? Is this an indication that something else is wrong?

Hi! Do you have an updated firmware on that router? Based on my readings, firmware version 1.0.02 (build 13) supports IPV6. Higher than that is much better. You may check for the latest firmware from this link, http://support.linksys.com/en-us/support/routers/E4200

Internet speed test EA6500

Hi guys,
sorry for my english.
I've a problem with the internet speed of my ADSL line(20Mega). Now I've the following components:
Dlink DSL-320B(modem)+Cisco Linksys EA6500. If I start a Speed test the result its only 4M in download, while i remove the router and i connect my Pc directly to modem, the speed test results its 13-14M.
Why? Is there any option in router that I must modify?
Help please.
Thx
Solved!

Do you have media prioritization enabled? This is most likely the case. You may disable this feature. Better yet, upgrade your router's firmware. This should fix the issue. Visit the EA6500 Support Page for the latest firmware.

Since getting BT broadband my router has been constantly loosing connection and at points restarting itself. I could live with that due to the nice speed i was getting. If anyone could please help me i would appreciate it very much.

There are noticeable speed issues however you noise margin is high at 22.4 normal default is 6db when reduced to that level your connection speed would increase and like wise your download speed you could contact the forum mods and ask them to reset your noise margin this is a link to them

E3500 - Cloud Connect Speed test not correct

I’m doing a comparison on my internet speed using various methods and the Cloud Connect Speed Test app.
First thing I noticed is the App gauge only goes to 20Mbps
I have tested various online speed tests and I get a consistent 70 – 90 Mbps.
(I work from home using multiple VoIP lines and have extreme bandwidth requirements so I’ve opted for the higher package)
Why is the Cisco Cloud App showing only 7 – 16 Mps?. The upload is inline.

Two things that I can think of. First is to go into the bios, hit the F9 key to set Setup Defaults, then hit the F10 key to save and exit. This has been known to make a difference on some systems.
Also check to see if you ahve the latest bios version. On that one the latest is 1.40. IF it isn't you might want to try updating it to the latest.
Go to the Product Support Link at the top of this page, enter in your model, then clik on the Download Tab to find the available bios files for that model. The latest is 1.40. DO NOT update the bios from within Windows. Don't do it, don't even think about doing it if you want to use your computer again. When you double click on the download you will be presented with the choice of creating a CD to flash the bios from. USE THIS METHOD. You can use a CD-RW so you don't waste a blank, but even the cost of a regular blank CD is cheap compared to the $100 that most places will charge you to fix a botched bios flash. Make sure that your battery is fully charged, installed, and the AC Adapter is plugged in just in case.
And don't forget to go into the bios and hit the F9 key to set Bios/Setup Defaults then F10 to exit and save just prior to and immediately after updating the bios.
If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time.

How can I read the internet speed in a MAC?

How can I find the INTERNET SPEED in a MAC?

You typically use a free Internet Speed test. It does an upload and a download from a known site, bypassing certain configuration problems. Just do a search to find a dozen services eager to test with you (in exchange for the Ads on their pages).
Do not pay for this service, and DO NOT accept any CR@P they suggest you download to "fix" your speed. They cannot tell from outside whether you have problems, and none of the things you can download ever makes anything better.
If using Wi-Fi, one generally finds that the Wi-Fi part of the connection is the limiting factor.

SLOW INTERNET*PLEASE HELP SPEED TEST RESULTS ATTACHED

just wanted to share my results.
http://www.speedtest.net/result/1013255725.png
YOU'VE Got to check it!!!!!

When you ran the tests was your Anti-Virus operational? I find that some antivirus programs (AVG) will cause bizarre speedtest results. Temporarily disabling them when you run the tests may show more consistent results.
Your results are showing really high speeds, not slow internet speeds as your subject suggests.

Last night I rented a movie successully (Argo) but it would not download. Support was called and I was advised that it was probably an internet speed issue. This was confirmed when I did a speed test as suggested. They now want to sell me some software for $40.00. Help

Hi,
No, it was Apple. Last night the movie (Argo) was downloaded. It took about an hour, however it did not open.
I can watch the preview, but can't open it.
Thanks for your interest.

Airport Time Capsule slows down internet speed while uploading app

Hi All,
Internet speed is going down drastically when I am submitting any iOS app to iTunes Connect.
Previously it was not like this.
I have updated my Macbook Pro to Mavericks and using Airport Time Capsule for wi-fi connection.
Is anyone facing this problem? Any help on this will be very much helpful.

I have almost the exact setup as you, and airtunes never slows down my internet connection.
Has it just happened recently? Have you done a reset on the TC? Make sure you are using the g network, and not in the b only mode.
You can also make sure everything on the network are getting good signal. You can check the signal strength from Airport Utility (in the logs and Stats pane).
