Speedtest.net

Internet speed measurer

Speedtest.net is a website that measures internet connection speed, testing download and upload rates and latency.

Run by Ookla, it became the default way to check whether your internet is performing as promised: My Speedtest.net results show I'm only getting half the speed I'm paying for.

Often shortened to just Speedtest.
