The internet speed test measures the speed of your internet connection and we used to test our speed using popular websites like speed test and fast from Netflix.
But, the search engine giant Google is offering a built-in tool on its search page to test your internet speed.
Yes, Google partners with Measurement Lab (M-Lab) to run this test.
Measurement Lab also called as M-Lab is lead by teams based at code for Science & Society, founded in 2009 by New America’s Open Technology Institute, the PlanetLab Consortium, Google, and a group of academic researchers. It is supported by partners around the world.
Check your Internet speed in under 30 seconds. The speed test usually transfers less than 40 MB of data but may transfer more data on fast connections.
To run the test, you’ll be connected to Measurement Lab (M-Lab) and your IP address will be shared with them and processed by them in accordance with their privacy policy. M-Lab conducts the test and publicly publishes all test results to promote Internet research. Published information includes your IP address and test results, but doesn’t include any other information about you as an Internet user. – Google
Important: The test uses different amounts of data depending on how fast your connection is and where you do the test. For example, a typical test in the U.S. uses 9.4 MB of data, but a test outside the U.S. uses about 4.4 MB. Mobile data charges could apply.
