H ow do I properly test my broadband connection?
This guide will teach you how to first off all properly test the speed you are receiving and then fix the issues you find. Wifi is a particularly bad culprit, it is often the case that the UPC modem is in fact delivering the full speed to your home, but your WiFi card is the bottleneck that is stopping you from getting that full speed on your PC or Laptop. However, unfortunately now people are running into issues where their PC’s, networking gear and wifi equipment simply are not fast enough to keep up with the speeds provided by UPC. Recently, UPC has launched super fast 240Mb/s broadband – offering incredibly fast speeds to the residential market.
In the past, the internet speeds we got from our ISP’s were relatively slow and the existing WiFi, networking gear and PC’s we owned were often far faster then the speed that our ISP delivered, so there wasn’t an issue.
