Easy and free internet speed test
This tool is helpful for troubleshooting network issues, optimising your online learning setup, or simply checking your connection before a live session. The test is almost fully automated. For best results, close any downloads, streaming apps, and browser tabs that might use bandwidth. If your device runs heavy security scans in the background, consider pausing them briefly during the test (and re-enable them immediately afterwards). Then click “Start” to begin. The test is free to use.
How the measurement works
Our server sends data packets to your device to measure your connection. It transfers multiple packets of different sizes and times how long it takes to download and upload them. Because the test uses most available bandwidth, avoid downloading files, streaming video, or refreshing other pages during the test.
What the results mean
This speed test measures key components of your internet connection: download speed, upload speed, ping (latency), and jitter.
-
Download speed: How fast data moves from the internet to your device (Mbps). Higher download speeds help with streaming, loading web pages, and downloading course materials.
-
Upload speed: How fast data moves from your device to the internet (Mbps). Higher upload speeds help with video calls, screen sharing, uploading assignments, and sending large files.
-
Ping (latency): The time it takes for a data packet to travel to a server and back (ms). Lower ping improves responsiveness in real-time tools like Zoom/Meet, live coding sessions, and online collaboration.
-
Jitter: How much your latency varies over time. Lower jitter usually means a smoother experience for video calls, VoIP, and live online learning.
Run multiple tests for more accurate results
A single speed test result can be influenced by many factors: Wi‑Fi signal strength, network congestion in your area in Hungary, your device performance, and current server load. For a clearer picture, run a few tests at different times of day and compare the results (an average is often the most useful).
By checking your connection before live classes, you can reduce interruptions and make your online learning experience smoother—whether you’re studying from Budapest or anywhere else in Hungary.
