Note

Please note:

The accuracy of this speed test diminishes with larger bandwidth circuits

The hardware performance of the client computer running this test has a significant impact on results

Any other activity on your network and any devices between your computer and the Internet will impact your speed. 

You will see the best results if you schedule a time to disconnect your local network and plug your test computer directly into the WiscNet router. If you cannot take down your network, we recommend connecting your test computer to your network as close as you can to the WiscNet device and using graphs.wiscnet.net or local monitoring to estimate how much bandwidth is being used before you start your test.
