Internet Speeds; What is a fast, slow and good internet speed?
Not sure if your internet speed is fast enough? Here’s how you can find out.
Internet speed is measured by how much data the connection can download or upload per second.

A fast download speed is important because that is what we use for streaming TV, browsing, downloading media and so on. An equally fast upload speed is also important if you are using internet to upload large files to servers or for video conferences, online presentations etc.

What is fast internet?
Internet download speeds of 100 Mbps or higher are often considered fast internet because they can handle multiple online activities for multiple users at once without major interruptions in service. Any connection that offers you speeds of 100 mbps or more is considered fast internet. There are providers that give you internet with speed between 100 mbps to 2000mbps.

What is slow internet?
Download speeds less than 25 Mbps are too slow to be considered broadband. With these speeds, users may experience buffering when streaming video, difficulty connecting multiple devices and other internet connectivity issues. Dialup, DSl or fixed wireless connections are likely to be slower.
