HOW CAN I CHECK THE SPEED OF MY BROADBAND CONNECTION?

Checking the speed of your Internet connection is easy! Click here to perform a speed test!

First, we recommend checking the speed of your connection directly, by connecting your laptop
or desktop computer to an Ethernet cord. After you run the speed test that way, then run the
speed test on a device connected to Wi-Fi. The speed you are getting while connected directly
should be close to your subscribed speed (for example, 60 Mbps upstream, 10 Mbps
downstream). The result of the speed test when connected to Wi-Fi will probably be about 80%
of your subscribed speed, as wireless Internet isn’t as strong as a direct connection.

You can also use the CommandIQ app to perform a speed test:

To run a bandwidth test simply select the “Begin Bandwidth Test” button at the
bottom of the screen. The speed test will first run between the GigaSpire and
the Internet and then will conduct a speed test between any mesh units and the
GigaSpire. Results will show as a notification, update at this location, and on
your main dashboard.
