A) if they have a 80MB sync they should get 80Mbps in test results, this is not true, on xDSL (ADSL/FTTC) due to TCP overheads you should get about 2-3Mbps less than your sync speed, so if you sync at 80MB you should get circa 77Mbps. my 2.4Ghz wifi can only reach 35MB/s at close range, 5Ghz is faster but weaker so the further away you are the greater drop in speed compared to 2.4Ghz - when diagnosing possible speed issues always use LAN.Ĥ) Make sure nobody else in your household is connected to the web when performing these tests, you never know.a phone or laptop could be downloading updates in the background, or a family member might be gaming or streaming movies. When people use speedtests they need to consider the following:ġ) You may be using a speedtest server that doesnt have the bandwidth to saturate your download channel therefore results will be incorrect.Ģ) If the server does have the bandwidth you could also be using the test on that server the same time as many other people, therefore results might be skewedģ) One should not use wifi if possible to diagnose speed problems, as we now can get speeds faster than a lot of wifi connections can perform.also if the wifi channels are shared/congested you will experience even further loss of speed, e.g.
