How this test measures
The test runs against the nearest Cloudflare data center, shown above as the server. Results describe the path between you and that server, which can differ from the path to a particular website, game or call server.
Ping is the median round-trip time of 60 small requests, and jitter is the average difference between consecutive ones. Download and upload use files of growing size sent one after another over a single connection, and the result is the 90th percentile of the requests that ran long enough to be reliable. Speeds are in megabits per second (1 Mbps = 1,000,000 bits).
Because it uses one connection, the test can read lower than a multi-connection test on very fast or distant links. Wi-Fi, a VPN, other devices and a busy browser can all lower the result, so use a cable and close other apps for the most accurate number. Nothing from the test is stored on our servers.
Powered by Cloudflare's network. No account needed.
Bing shows its own speed test when you search for "speed test", and this page is an independent alternative. It measures download speed, upload speed, ping and jitter on Cloudflare's network, with no account and no install.
Bing speed test vs. this test
Bing's built-in test is powered by Ookla's Speedtest and appears at the top of the search results. It reports download, upload and latency. This page runs a different test, so the numbers will not match exactly. Small differences are normal, because tests use different servers, methods and moments in time.
- This test also reports jitter, shows a speed graph and a plain-language rating for streaming, gaming and video calls.
- Bing's test is quick to reach from a search, and from the Windows 11 network menu.
If the two results differ a lot, run both a few times over Ethernet and compare the averages.
What the results mean
- Download speed is how fast data reaches you. It affects streaming, downloads and page loads. See what a good download speed is.
- Upload speed is how fast you send data: video calls, backups and posting video. See upload speed explained.
- Ping is the delay of the connection in milliseconds. See what ping is.
- Jitter is how much ping varies. See what jitter is.
Tips for a reliable result
- Use Ethernet if you can, or stay close to the router.
- Close other apps and pause downloads and streams.
- Turn off any VPN while testing.
- Run the test two or three times, and compare with your plan's speed.
