(Ignore the BT Hub SSID – this was cloned to the Velop system to avoid having to reconfigure a whole load of devices with a new Wi-Fi network.) The speed of 461Mbps is very good, and way faster than the 60Mbps download speed we get from BT. Here we’ve tested with a Huawei P30 Pro (Wi-Fi 5) connecting to a Linksys Velop tri-band mesh system. To eliminate the possibility of slow Wi-Fi, it’s best to run the test using a laptop or PC connected directly to your router with an Ethernet cable. It will tell you – normally within a minute – how quick your connection is, but make sure you’re standing close to your router if running the test on a device connected via Wi-Fi. You can do this in a web browser, or download the app for Android and iOS.
The service we use to check broadband speeds is. Be sure to disable any VPN before you run tests – unless you’re testing your VPN provider’s speed, of course. If you use a VPN, that could be the cause of web pages loading slowly. Or, it could be that a dodgy Wi-Fi connection is running slowly and making you think your broadband provider is at fault. Sometimes, when you and all your housemates, family members or even neighbours are streaming Netflix at the same time, things can slow to a crawl.
It’s worth knowing that internet speeds vary depending on many factors.
