You can grab Speedtest by Ookla here in the Store, it's a free download. Tapping top right for your speed test history lets you browse back as needed. The new privacy policy - boring but also good to see transparency (right) a speed test in operation on my Wifi through my 950 XL. The hub/router is newer, so perhaps improvements in Wifi are showing here and also that the 950 XL wasn't quite the limiting factor I thought it was! Which is curious, since I'm now getting twice that throughput in 2020, on the same 950 XL. The most I could get a Snapdragon 810-powered Lumia 950 XL to achieve on the download side was 93Mbps, while my 820-powered Axon 7 (running Android) showed 110Mbps, etc. My (cough) 5GHz Wifi on a 160Mbps fibre connection was far too much to be line limited - you're more likely to use Speedtest when your Internet bandwidth is marginal and you're trying to find ways to improve it. Upload Speed determines how quickly you can send information for activities like video calling or cloud data backups. Download Speed affects most online activities, like loading web pages and streaming videos. Results are, as I say, limited to device capability if your Wifi is insanely fast. These measures reflect the capabilities of your current device and internet connection. It all works as expected, nice and simple and just one button to hit.
