Speed Test by Cloudflare Reviews and details

Social recommendations and mentions

• Flent: The FLExible Network Tester

  > https://speed.cloudflare.com Love this. I'm used to use speedtest.net back in the day, but this is so much better in so many ways and provides so much more data. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Flent: The FLExible Network Tester

  It is not in the same league as Flent, but I really like https://speed.cloudflare.com as an in-browser internet speed test. It's backed by a very densely deployed CDN, it tests both loaded and unloaded latency, and it reports jitter and draws candlestick plots. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Unbloating the Buffers

  Followup: I just tested OpenWrt 23.05.2 + luci-app-sqm + cake with https://speed.cloudflare.com/ With the limit set to 1 Mbps (1000/1000), my upload latency dropped from 80ms to 25ms, but speed was hard-limited to 1000/1000. With the limit rasied to 1G/1G, cake stopped working and my upload latency returned to 80ms. So I stand by my original comment. You still have to configure the speed limits manually. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Issues with Fibre internet immediately after starting service

  This is helpful, thank you. We weren't expecting anything being routed through a wall, just a longer cable. Speeds right next to the router on my phone were still like 20Mbps. I will try creating the two networks and seeing if that helps, though I still think there is something wrong with how it was set up. I've been using cloudflare (https://speed.cloudflare.com) for the tests which is in Mbps. Source: 5 months ago

• Release Notes for 12/6/2023

  What packet loss are you experiencing? Are you on wifi? If you do this test, do you see any packet loss here too? Source: 5 months ago

• Steam Deck slow download speed ONLY with Steam

  There's nothing wrong with router or my internet connection, as I mentioned before I tried to download different files through browser and got expected speeds. Services like https://speed.cloudflare.com or https://www.speedtest.net return expected speeds of 500-600 Mbit/s (tried different servers). Source: 6 months ago

• Powerline VS Mesh WiFi

  I was semi-OK with the Powerlines, but the speed lose (I have 1 gigabit by my ISP, yeah, 300Mbps are all needed usually, but something itched me about losing speed just because; also, I wanted something a little more future-proof than being limited to 250-300Mbps top). Also, speed.cloudflare.com was giving me "Average"/"Good" results and IDK why, because using ethernet, my connection was always "Great". Source: 8 months ago

• Insane packet loss issues

  In the last few days I've been having insane packet loss issues in some of my games. Not every game but around 30% of my games for the past week I experience packet loss issues spiking to up to 50-60%. However whenever I run a network test through speed.cloudflare.com it says 0% packet loss (ref.: https://i.imgur.com/l4SrpAa.png). All my other games and apps work without any issues so I am assuming this has... Source: 8 months ago

• Speedtest? Use Cloudflare Instead!

  Speed.cloudflare.com is a tool that allows you to measure the speed and consistency of your connection to the Internet. You can use it to verify that the speed your ISP promised you is the speed you are getting, compare different ISPs or test network connectivity in different parts of your house. Source: 9 months ago

• Starlink in Great Falls

  If you have r/Starlink in Great Falls, could you post some speed tests (ie. https://speed.cloudflare.com/), I'd like to see what the performance is before I buy. I'm thinking of getting the High Performance dish ... But not sure if it's actually worth the cost. Source: 10 months ago

• Unable to perform Speed Tests!

  For testing speed from a wired device on the network I use https://speed.cloudflare.com/. Source: 10 months ago

• T-Mobile Fiber

  How are the results on the Cloudflare Speed Test or pinging 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8? Source: 10 months ago

• 5g+ mmwave speedtest @ DAL

  Honestly, speedtest.net isn't that useful. https://speed.cloudflare.com is way more useful because it tests your speed downloading a variety of file sizes - and most of what you do is tiny files. It also tests your connection to a real CDN rather than what you could theoretically get if content were hosted on the best server for you. Speedtest.net's measurement is a lot more theoretical than real-world. They've... Source: 10 months ago

• Latency on Proximus DSL network. Looking to compare with other users.

  For some time now I'm occasionally experiencing packet loss while online gaming. At first glance my connection seemed stable. I have found this speedtest on cloudflare that checks latency under various conditions. Seems like latency gets quite high while uploading. I would like to compare these results with other users.

• Frontier Fiber Static IP Addresses on LAN Public Subnet

  Update: I setup a FCA252 MoCA adapter instead of using the 1Gb LAN Ethernet port on the Sagemcom router and I only get about 250Mb/1000Mb via several speed tests including fast.com and https://speed.cloudflare.com. Source: 10 months ago

• Wlan same connection quality as lan ?

  Cloudflare's speed test will show you more stats than others. Source: 10 months ago

• Software/installation hangups

  You can try running the windows repair tool. It can be really tricky to track down whatever driver or windows error is causing this, so it would probably be best to just do a fresh windows installation. Also is it specific updates that hang up? Also you should open this cloudflare packet loss/download speed page while you’re having this issue just to verify it’s not related to your network. Source: 10 months ago

• For my fellow AT&T users, what’s a good dns that helps when gaming?

  Https://speed.cloudflare.com/ ; mines are "great" on all three categories. Source: 10 months ago

• Constantly kicking me...

  Open this on PC and run the test, Note the Jitter number as it's a measure of connection "Quality" . https://speed.cloudflare.com/. Source: 10 months ago
