How to Test my Broadband Connection Speed

To test your broadband Internet connection speed you can use the http://speedtest.net website.

This website uses hundreds of servers located all over the world you can connect to, to test your real Internet link speed.

speedtest.net can measure latency (ping), download and upload speed connecting you to different servers either at home or overseas, so that you get an idea how fast your connection is when downloading stuff from distant servers.
