What Is ACT Broadband Speed Test?

ACT Broadband Speed Test is an online Internet testing tool that measures the current performance of your broadband connection. It can show download speed, upload speed, ping and jitter.

The tool works directly in a modern web browser and can be used on phones, tablets, laptops and desktop computers connected to an ACT broadband connection.

What Is Download Speed?

Download speed indicates how quickly data can travel from the Internet to your device. It is normally measured in Mbps. Higher download bandwidth can help with video streaming, website loading, file downloads and other Internet activities.

What Is Upload Speed?

Upload speed indicates how quickly data can travel from your device to the Internet. It is important for sending files, cloud backups, video calls and uploading photos or videos.

What Is Ping?

Ping is a measurement of network response time and is normally shown in milliseconds. Lower latency generally means a more responsive connection, which can be useful for gaming and real-time communication.

What Is Jitter?

Jitter measures variations in network latency. Stable latency and lower jitter are generally desirable for online gaming, voice calls and video conferencing.

Why Is My ACT Internet Slow?

Slow results can be caused by weak Wi-Fi, router limitations, multiple connected devices, background downloads, wireless interference or changing network conditions.

For troubleshooting, run the test more than once and compare the results. If possible, also compare Wi-Fi performance with an Ethernet connection.
