MyBroadband Speed Test

The best way to test your South African Internet connection is by using the MyBroadband Speed Test tool.

This tool is available at speedtest.co.za or speedtest.mybroadband.co.za.

The MyBroadband Speed Test tool is powered by 10Gbps servers at the vendor-neutral Teraco data centres in South Africa.

This ensures every speed test result is unbiased and shows your true Internet pathway.

The MyBroadband Speed Test interface is also simple and intuitive, and does not have any intrusive ads or paid features.

This makes using the MyBroadband Speed Test tool seamless and convenient.

Benefits of testing your Internet Speed

Performing regular speed tests is the best way to ensure you are getting full value for your money from your ISP.

Speed tests are also critical when troubleshooting any issues you encounter where websites load slowly or videos buffer:

Low speeds probably mean that there is an issue with your ISP or your router.
High speeds probably mean the issue is with the website’s hosting, or even an undersea cable break.

Additionally, testing your Internet speed makes it easier for other South Africans to work out which FNOs and ISPs offer the best connectivity products.
