- Ping: simply put, it is the time to connect two IP addresses. The nature of the internet is the connection of IP addresses globally. Ping time is measured in milliseconds (ms). Usually, ping below 30 ms is good.
- Download: is the speed of downloading files and data on your wifi network. The unit of measurement is Mbps. Download speed must be at least 10 Mbps to be standard.
- Upload: is the speed of uploading your files to the network. Upload speed is always lower than download speed. The unit of measurement is also Mbps.

Notes for the most accurate wifi test
- You must not download or upload any files during the wifi test. This will affect the wifi test results.
- You should choose to test with locations in Vietnam. Because the speed advertised by the network provider is domestic speed. If you test foreign servers, the results will vary greatly.
- You should test 2-3 times to get the most accurate average result.
- Wifi changes constantly, so if the results differ, you shouldn't worry.
- Whether you measure wifi speed on iPhone, Android, laptop, desktop... the results will be similar. You don't need to worry about differences between test devices.
- Wifi changes constantly with distance. Therefore, when testing, you should keep the device in one place.

What to do if wifi speed is too slow
If you see wifi speed is too slow compared to what the network provider announced, you should call the hotline to inquire. They may guide you to reset the modem or send a technician to check. If the wifi speed is still correct according to the network contract but you still find it slow, it is very likely that a shark has bitten the cable again.
If you are buying a wifi hotspot device, go to the seller to inquire. However, with a 3G/4G SIM wifi hotspot device, the speed will never be stable. You should test multiple times to get the most accurate results.
Another thing is that the more people you share wifi with, the higher the risk of slow internet. Because many people use one wifi network at the same time, the speed will definitely decrease.
Many people using the same network service in an area will also be affected. Because on the same line, many devices will have to be connected, affecting the wifi speed. You can often see that at night when fewer people are using it, the wifi speed is faster than during the day.
Good luck testing wifi speed. Hope this article has helped you know how to check wifi speed accurately and simply.
