What is FAST.com measuring? FAST.com speed test gives you an estimate of your current Internet speed. You will generally be able to get this speed from leading Internet services, which use globally distributed servers.
Why does FAST.com focus primarily on download speed? Download speed is most relevant for people who are consuming content on the Internet, and we want FAST.com to be a very simple and fast speed test.
How are the results calculated? To calculate your Internet speed, FAST.com performs a series of downloads from and uploads to Netflix servers and calculates the maximum speed your Internet connection can provide. More details are in our blog post.
What can I do if I'm not getting the speed I pay for? If results from FAST.com and other internet speed tests (like dslreports.com or speedtest.net) often show less speed than you have paid for, you can ask your ISP about the results.
Your internet can be slow for many reasons. Your internet plan may be too slow for your needs, your modem or router may be out of date, your router may be on the fritz, or you might have too many people using your Wi-Fi at the same time.

The time (measured in milliseconds) it takes for a signal to travel from your device to an internet server and back. Lower latency means your connection has a better response time for activities like gaming and livestreams.
Download speed measures how fast information can transfer to you. It affects things like how long it takes to download large files, update games, or show pages with lots of photos. Download speed is measured in megabits per second (Mbps). One gigabit is 1000 Mbps, two gigabits is 2000 Mbps.
Upload speed measures how fast information can transfer from you. It affects things like how you appear on video calls, how fast you can upload files to the cloud, and how long it takes to add attachments to emails. Upload speed is measured in megabits per second (Mbps).
Jitter measures the fluctuations in the speeds at which a stream of data is sent. A high jitter score can affect streaming and video calls, making them look and sound choppy or glitchy. Jitter is measured in milliseconds (ms).

States and territories across the nation have Signed On to the Internet For All Initiative and committed to connecting their communities to reliable high-speed Internet for less. These programs will provide more than $48 billion for infrastructure deployment, skills training and access to technologies essential for Americans to connect with their communities, their democracy, and one another.
The same exact thing is happening to me. I have tested my internet speed and it's clocking in at 400+mbps. Every Zoom meeting is laggy showing low bandwidth and "your internet is unstable" messages when it is not. Zoom please help!
I had struggled for 8 months with "low internet" connection, esp in Zoom. I've found others had the same problem. Even though I got a good "signal" into the home, there was this ongoing intermittent problem. When the Technician replaced both the amplifier and the splitter, low and behold, everything works GREAT now. I want to share this information on the Zoom chat/blog so others could be helped. It's frustrating because everyone points the finger to someone else for the problem, i.e. "It's a problem with Zoom," or its your router, and after spending HOURS with Tech support and no resolve, it was great to finally find the problem.

Access to affordable high-speed internet has become a necessity in our professional, personal, and social lives. People who lack connectivity miss out on online learning, healthcare, and economic opportunities. The Michigan High-Speed Internet Office (MIHI) is working to create a more digitally equitable Michigan where everyone can leverage technology to improve their quality of life.
The Michigan High-Speed Internet Office was established in June 2021 by Executive Directive 2021-2. An additional Executive Directive 2021-12 has ensured that Michigan is poised to make effective use of the once-in-a-generation resources that are being made available through the federal Bipartisan Infrastructure Plan.
MIHI recently released a Digital Inclusion Playbook and set of Digital Inclusion Playbook and set of resources that can help Michiganders improve digital equity in their communities. Creating a more digitally equitable Michigan was Goal 2 of the 2021 Update to the Michigan Broadband Roadmap and was recognized by the 2021 Michigan Poverty Task Force Report as the pathway to lifting 1.4 million Michiganders out of poverty and reducing our Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed population.
Gov. Whitmer signed into law both the Broadband Expansion Act of Michigan, which codified the state-funded Connecting Michigan Communities (CMIC) grant program, and the Building Michigan Together plan, which invested the funds our state is receiving from the federal Coronavirus Capital Projects Fund in the ROBIN grant program.
More than 212,000 households in our state lack the opportunity to access a high-speed internet connection and another additional 865,000 households face barriers related to affordability, adoption, or digital literacy. Taken together, this means that approximately 31% of Michigan households do not have an affordable, reliable high-speed internet connection that meets their needs.
The device speed test checks the speed between your smartphone, tablet, computer, or other device and the internet. You can run the test through a cellular (mobile) network, a wired broadband connection, or your home Wi-Fi.
A gateway speed test checks the speed between your AT&T Wi-Fi gateway and our network. It reflects the speed coming into your home.
Your device speed varies, depending on the number of devices you connect to Wi-Fi, how you use them, their age and type, and Wi-Fi signal strength.

To inform broadband policy and planning, the Department annually surveys and maps the deployment of high-speed broadband internet access in Vermont, pursuant to 30 V.S.A. 202e (e). The Department prepares a map, narrative description, and cost estimate to provide broadband service at the following speeds: 4/1 - 4 Mbps download speed and an upload speed of at least 1 Mbps; 25/3 - at least 25 Mbps download speed and an upload speed of at least 3 Mbps; and 100/100 - download speed of at least 100 Mbps and is symmetrical. If monetarily feasible, the Department also maps areas served and the areas not served by wireless communications service.
Each tier shows the quantity of locations served at that speed or better. The address level information can viewed on an interactive map. Statistics include a breakdown by town and county can be downloaded here. The Detail tab lists the breakdown by town for the quantity of locations in each specific tier.
Served 4/1 or greater and Underserved
The locations depicted on this map indicate where speeds of 4/1 or greater are available and not available as voluntarily reported by Vermont's Broadband providers.
Served 100/100 or Greater
The locations depicted on this map indicate where speeds of 100/100 or greater are available and not available as voluntarily reported by Vermont's Broadband providers.
The information in the reports, last updated with data from 11/8/2022, is summarized in the table below, for a total of 313,062 buildings. Each tier shows the quantity of locations served at that speed or better. The address level information can viewed on an interactive map.
