Internet Speed Test
Internet Speeds Explained
-
Download Speed: This is the speed that the internet connection receives the data from the internet source - how many Mega bits of data per second received from the server.
-
Upload Speed: As a rule of thumb, upload speed is 1/10 of whatever download speed is listed. Another important idea to keep handy is that an upload takes more time than a download BUT uses less bandwidth (or highway space).
-
Live Streaming: Streaming can be downloading or uploading - watching videos or listening to music is downloading. Live Streaming such as Zoom / Facetime is uploading.
