Understanding your speed test results
After you’ve run the speed test, see how your results measure up.
- Download speed: This refers to how long your device takes to get data from the internet. A good download speed should equal the speed tier you pay for—for instance, if you have an AT&T Internet 100 plan, your download speed should be around 100 Mbps. ✝︎
- Upload speed: This is how fast your device sends data to the internet. Unless you have a fiber connection, your upload speed is typically lower than the download speed. A good upload speed is usually around 10 - 50 Mbps.
- Latency/ping rate: This measures the time it takes for a signal to travel from your device to your internet server and back. A good latency rate is typically around 25 milliseconds or lower.
