Speedtest by Ookla
The most popular speed test worldwide. Lets you pick a Kathmandu or valley server for a fair local measurement, and shows ping, download, and upload in one run.

Fast.com
A simple, one-click test run by Netflix. No account, no ads, no clutter — it starts with an instant download result and can also show upload and latency. Good for a quick check.

Start TestCloudflare Speed Test
A detailed test measuring download, upload, latency, and connection quality against Cloudflare's network. Useful for seeing how your connection performs under real-world load.

Interpreting Results
What your result means, in Nepal
How your plan should test
| Plan | Download | Upload (fiber) | Rough file speed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter 20 Mbps | 20 Mbps | 20 Mbps | ~2.5 MB/s |
| Family 40 Mbps | 40 Mbps | 40 Mbps | ~5.0 MB/s |
| Pro 75 Mbps | 75 Mbps | 75 Mbps | ~9.4 MB/s |
Fiber uploads match downloads — that's the symmetric advantage of fiber over copper.
Reading your results
What does my speed test result actually mean?
The download speed is how fast data reaches you, the upload speed is how fast it leaves, and ping is the round-trip delay in milliseconds. Mbps measures megabits per second — divide by 8 to get megabytes per second, so 40 Mbps downloads at roughly 5 MB/s.
Why is my result lower than my plan speed?
A few things lower test results: testing over Wi-Fi instead of a wired cable, an old router, a busy server, or peak-evening congestion. For a fair test, connect your computer directly to the router with an ethernet cable, close other apps, and test again. Compare against your plan: 20, 40, or 75 Mbps.
What ping should I expect in Nepal?
To a Kathmandu or valley server, a healthy fiber connection usually shows under 20–30 ms. International servers are naturally higher — often 100–200 ms to Europe or the US — because the signal physically travels farther. Low ping matters most for gaming and video calls.
How does Nepal's internet context affect my test?
Choose a Nepal or Kathmandu server when testing local speed, and expect international results to be lower — Nepal's connections to global routes can be congested during peak hours. Fiber uploads match downloads, which is why video calls and cloud uploads stay fast on our network.
How do I get the most accurate test result?
Test over ethernet, at a quiet time, to a Kathmandu server, on a laptop rather than a phone, and run it 2–3 times. If a wired test repeatedly shows far below your plan speed, contact support — that is a genuine issue we can investigate.
