Frequently asked questions
- How accurate is this South African speed test?
- The test measures latency, jitter, download and upload directly in your browser against local hosting nodes using parallel connections, closely mirroring real-world throughput. Results vary with Wi-Fi, device and network congestion.
- Why is my speed slower than my advertised line speed?
- Wi-Fi interference, older routers, peak-time congestion and background downloads all reduce measured speed. Test over a wired connection with nothing else running for the most accurate reading.
- What is a good internet speed in South Africa?
- For a household, 50–100 Mbps uncapped fibre comfortably handles 4K streaming, video calls and gaming. Anything under 20 Mbps may struggle with multiple simultaneous users.
