Depending on the speed of the server you're connecting with, your upload and download speeds can vary. By using the Bell Aliant Speed Test tool, you can get an accurate measurement of your connection speed within the Bell Aliant network.
To test your speed, check the following:
- Use a computer connected directly to your High-Speed router. You may not see accurate results when using wireless due to interference with other appliances, cordless phones and devices.
- Make sure that you do not have downloads in progress as this will impact your results
-
If you are unable to open the tool with the link above, you can go to http://speedtest.bellaliant.net/ directly.
If you have a Giga Hub, you can also run the speed test directly from the modem:
- On the front of the modem, press the down arrow and scroll to Test Internet speed.
- Press OK to confirm.
- Wait for the speed test to be completed.
- Review the results. The measured download speed should be close to what the Internet service you signed up for offers.
