Internet Speed Test
Ping is the time a request needs for a reply; jitter is how much that time varies. The test also measures ping while data is moving. It tests the way to a test server, not to your game server.

How this test works
One run measures idle latency, download and upload. Quick mode sends 10 latency requests, then runs 6 seconds each of download and upload on 3 connections. The first 1.5 seconds of each direction are ignored. Latency under load is measured as well. The speed measurement runs through M-Lab (NDT7) for visitors in Russia, and the page offers M-Lab if our test server does not answer.
How to read the result
The page shows an estimate for browsing, HD video, 4K video, calls and gaming, and the weakest measured value sets each one. For gaming, more than 10 Mbit/s down and more than 3 Mbit/s up count as likely enough, and 0.192 Mbit/s or more in each direction as maybe enough. On the home page, four cards show calls, work, streaming and gaming.
What is typical
The gaming estimate sets its speed limits at 10 and 3 Mbit/s and its latency limit at 40 ms. This test does not measure packet loss, so the loss part of the gaming check is not judged.
What to do if it is bad
When an estimate is below likely, the page names the metrics that limited it. A metric that was not measured is listed as missing instead of being judged.
