Speed Test Internet

A computer without Internet access is almost as good as a computer that isn't even plugged into a power source nowadays.  Almost everything we do is now dependant on out Internet connection, from talking to others, to backing up our data and processing games and multimedia. With that in mind, its no wonder that we always strive to have the best possible Internet speeds for a given budget, especially if you're sharing the bandwidth with other house members. Speed Test Internet is a lightweight extension for the Google Chrome browser, and it is used mainly as a real-time Internet speed monitoring tool.

Speed Test Internet isn't an addon per-say, since any type of interaction will just open a new tab towards the developer's website, and the website itself is where you gan the benefit of all their services. This essentially means that the extension's icon is merely a shortcut to the main website's URL. There you have a speed dial where you can check your system's current download and upload speed at any given second.

The tests work by firstly sending a little record from their servers straightforwardly to your PC utilizing your broadband association.  The speed at which the exchange happens will normally be shown continuously and recorded toward the end, and this will provide you a precise picture of your current download speed.  This allows you to see how downloading and uploading files affect your overall network performance, as well and find out if anyone else in the house is eating most of the bandwidth.

Speed Test Internet is great for assessing your network's status, especially if you sometimes are under the impression that you aren't getting the speeds your ISP promised you.
