About Xpeedtest
Xpeedtest is a free tool to measure the real speed of your internet connection —download, upload, ping and jitter— straight from your browser, with no app and no sign-up.
Our mission
We believe everyone deserves to know whether they actually get the internet speed they pay for. The speeds advertised by providers are theoretical maximums; what matters is what reaches your device in real life. Xpeedtest gives you that measurement transparently and puts it in context: comparing it to the average for your country, your city and your provider.
How we measure
We use Cloudflare's open-source measurement engine —the same one behind speed.cloudflare.com—, which tests your connection against Cloudflare's global network, present in hundreds of cities. Every test measures download, upload, ping, jitter and packet loss, and computes a quality score per use case (streaming, gaming, video calls). Full technical details are on our methodology page.
Where our data comes from
Provider and city pages combine verifiable public sources with our own measurements:
- RIPE NCC — the official database of autonomous system numbers (ASN), country and network prefixes announced by each provider.
- PeeringDB — a network directory with commercial names and interconnection data.
- Real Xpeedtest measurements — once a city or ISP accumulates at least 30 tests, the displayed statistics switch to real aggregated data from our users, instead of the national reference baseline.
Why trust Xpeedtest
- Independent: we're not owned by any internet provider and receive no payment from them.
- Transparent: our methodology is public and the measurement engine is open source.
- Private: no sign-up required, and we don't store your full IP or personally identifiable data.
- Verifiable: the network technical data we show links back to its original source at RIPE NCC.
Privacy
You don't need to create an account. We only store the test result (speeds, ping, jitter, provider ASN and country) when the test completes, and we use it solely to calculate aggregated statistics per ISP and city. We don't store your full IP address or any personally identifying information.
