Our mission at Speedtest by Ookla® is to make the internet faster by providing data and insights on real-world internet speeds. With billions of tests worldwide, we meet you where you are with apps for the devices you use most.
Romanysoft SpeedTest app. To start working immediately with speed test, just click 'Start' and in few seconds you'll get your internet speed results. (1) Best server location, sampling testing and feedback the ping response time. (2) Sampling inspection network download bandwidth speed. (3) Sampling inspection network upload bandwidth speed. Disk Speed Test. Disk Speed Test is a benchmark app developed by Blackmagic whose purpose is to check your Mac disk’s performance when working with HD videos. It does this by using large data blocks to write test your disk as well as write and read tests in order to evaluate not only your disk’s performance but also its readability over.

Download Speed Test Details
TestMy.net's servers are hosted where the websites you visit are hosted. Your provider may prefer testing within their network but is that realistic? TestMy.net provides a real world scenario not a best case scenario which makes this speed test a more accurate representation of your true bandwidth. This is a true and trusted test of your Internet download speed.
- Tests sizes auto adjust up to 200 MB depending on your Internet connection type.
- Manual tests sizes over 12 MB have the automatic forwarding feature disabled.
- Randomized speed test data, each download test is dynamically created on the fly so no two tests are alike. Which provides unparalleled cache prevention.
- Enabling the multithread speed testing option on your download speed test can really open up your connection for maximum throughput. Multithread isn't the default testing option because it has less detail and can mask certain connection issues. (It's recommend to test both ways and compare your performance. Powerful, properly configured connections have very little variance between the two bandwidth test types.)
- Test different locales simultaniously. The coast to coast multithread test allows you to test multiple servers simultaneously giving you the most comprehensive results possible. Get one test result that represents your connections speed across the entire United States. Manual selection options for all test servers and expansions on this concept coming soon.
- Control the size of your speed test with manual test sizes.
- Tested via SSL (https)
- Express averages your last 5 tests to determine the most suitable test size.
- PHP driven, server-side programming means no plug-ins necessary and a much higher level of accuracy than flash speed tests. This is the only true PHP speed test online.
- Results are logged to a personal score database where you can plot graphs, draw averages and compare your speed against cities, countries, users and providers.
- Pinpoint routing issues with the ability to test across multiple popular Internet routes with coast to coast United States servers.
- Test your connection speed automatically on a schedule with the Automatic Speed Test.
TiP (Test in Progress) Measurements
TestMy.net has a high resolution download test. Unlike other speed tests TestMy.net takes measurements during the test to show you the path of your download speed over the course of the test. It conducts tests within the test. The end result is unparalleled result detail.
Information like minimum speed, average speed, maximum speed and variance from minimum to maximum speed during the test are shown along with a graph plotting the speed over time, percentage and data transferred. This extra information is logged to the database and can be a great aid in troubleshooting. Currently TiP is only available on the linear download speed test.
Great Connection
This connection quickly picked up speed, held it there and actually sped up at the end. All marks of great connection quality. Note: Sometimes little variance in speed can also point to an issue like a bottleneck.
Poor Connection
Large variance in speed can be an indication of a connection issue. TiP enables users to see this information to understand how the data flowed as the test ran.
The Compatible Download Speed Test
The TestMy.net has been intentionally designed with compatibility in mind. TestMy.net is a server-side application so our bandwidth test works in all popular modern browsers, on all platforms and all connection types. PC, Mac, Linux, Android & iOS users can all use TestMy.net without installing anything. All you have to do is point your computer, iPad, iPod, iPhone, Android or other modern device to TestMy.net.
Note: The automatic speed test is designed for desktop use. Although, if you change your device settings to keep it awake (display on, focused on the test) and plugged into power it works great on mobile devices.
TMN directly interfaces with your browser, without the need for additional software like Flash, Java or an app. This server-side approach not only makes TMN the most compatible speed test online it also makes for a much higher level of accuracy and enables TMN to passively detect computer issues that other speed tests fail to notice.
Note, your default system web browser is always recommended for testing. Although, TestMy.net is an excellent way to highlight performance differences between different browsers. For many years TMN users have reported that Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox outperform all other browsers in this benchmark... the fact is, if the browser processes this test information faster then it will process other websites information faster. Simple as that. Some versions of Chrome are faster and sometimes Firefox is on top but usually one of those two browsers will be your best bet for performance. Mac users, Safari also performs very well.
A true test of your Internet browser
This is a real world speed test. Unlike other speed tests that require third party applications, TestMy.net is PHP and HTML5 driven so it uses only your web browser. This makes TMN's speed test more sensitive to browser misconfiguration and is an excellent way to highlight performance differences between web browsers.
Check Computer Speed Mac
Less between you and the test is a good thing. Our competitors speed tests that run through flash or java have a higher CPU overhead and users report throughput bursting. TestMy.net directly interacts with your browser without any plugins or special software.
