Is Your ISP Fooling You? Check Your Broadband Speed Now
Broadband speed check is a UK based website where you can check your Internet’s current speed with just a click of a button. This should regularly be used specially by those people who have broadband Internet connections. ISP’s these days seem to be fighting for the number one position in field of broadband Internet and thus go on to make claims which might be very hard to achieve. In the process many Internet users are fooled and there money not well spent. Such kind of people should keep a check of there broadband speed and report to there service providers in case of speed falling down.
How it works
Start the speed checker by clicking the big button in the center of the page. The check first starts by downloading a file and measures how long it takes. After the download is finished the speed checker tries to upload a file and measures your upload speed. If you want to get accurate results then you should not use your Internet connection for any other applications once the speed checker is running. The broadband speed is measured in Kbps (kilobits per second). Approximately 1000 Kbps is 1Mb/s. (To be accurate 1024 Kbps is 1 Mbps)
The website which checks your broadband speed is simple in design and will not distract you from your purpose. While the speed is being checked the speedometer keeps you busy. After the speed check is done they list your upload/download speeds and give you a option to share your speeds with others. They will give you an image which you can show in your website like you see mine at the start of this article. My original speed is 1Mbps but when I actually checked the speed I guess my Internet was a little hooked up so it shows to be 232.
Are you UK based? If yes, than these people have some cheap broadband packages for you to choose from. The price is as low as £4.50 per month. That is real cheap!
Are you still confused? Than better start reading there blog which will provide you with all kinds of information about broadband packages.
The service is great and it would be more interactive if they try and bring there work outside UK and not show themselves as #1 in UK only. Although there service can be used by any place but once they target the complete planet it becomes more interesting.
