How fast you can pull data from the internet. This affects streaming, web browsing, and downloading files. Most households need 25+ Mbps for comfortable usage.
How fast you can send data. Important for video calls, uploading files, and live streaming. Upload is typically slower than download on most connections.
The time it takes for data to make a round trip. Lower is better. Under 50ms is good for gaming and video calls. Under 20ms is excellent.
Ethernet cables provide more stable and faster speeds than Wi-Fi. Connect directly to your router for the best performance.
Streaming services, cloud backups, and software updates running in the background can consume bandwidth.
A simple restart can often fix slow speeds caused by memory leaks or congested routing tables.
If speeds are consistently below what you're paying for, contact your ISP. They may need to check your line or upgrade your equipment.
Some ISPs throttle streaming, gaming, and downloads. NordVPN encrypts your traffic so your ISP can't see what you're doing — and can't slow you down.
