How To Find Consolidated Internet Speed?

How do I find out my internet connection speed?

  • I want to know because I'm downloading the sims 3 and its taking forever and gamestop.com said it depends how fast your internet speed it.

  • Answer:

    Testing your internet speed won't do any good, because you can hit a speed test site, run a check, and find out you have a 3.0 mbps connection to THEM. But that doesn't mean anything regarding the connection to gamestop. The speed of a connection is going to depend on the amount of bandwidth available between you and the other end. if they have a narrow "pipe" or a lot of people are on their site, that's going to slow things down.

Go to www.speedtest.net and perform the test to find out the internet speed you are getting from your internet provider. =)

As games are generally 6 GB or bigger these days, it will take some time on any kind of connection. In addition if you're in a country far a way from the USA it might take longer because of the physical distance. That said you can go to http://www.speedtest.net/ and test your connection there. 500 kbps to 999 kbps is below average. 1 mbps to 2 mbps is around average. 2+ mbps is above average.

Type `internet connection speed test` into google, there are several sites that will test it.
