Start testing your speed in seconds by using the Begin Test button on the front page map. This will find a server near you, and test the ping, download speed, and upload speed of your Internet connection.

If you'd like more data, you can repeat the test, either to the same server or to a new one in a different location. We have more than 2,700 hosts worldwide, so there are plenty of options for you to manually select from the map. These servers are used for the testing and measuring alone; they do not control your Internet performance.

At the end of your test, we provide you with tools to share your results on social media or link to or embed them on your own site; you can also contribute to our Ookla Net Index, our searchable, public map of worldwide Internet connections, by filling out an anonymous short survey explaining your web connection.
