Welcome to this month’s speedtest megathread. Yep, you heard that right, it’s time to show off your speeds.

Format

Location (city, state), Downlink, Uplink, Device, Notes. An example would look like this: “Minneapolis, MN, 554 down, 31 up, Google Pixel 7a, taken in downtown”.

Rules

  1. No screenshots. They take up valuable server space, require more bandwidth, and are not accessible to screen reader users.
  2. If you live in a small town or rural area please fudge your location a little. As an example if i lived in Olive Hill, Ky (population 1580) I might use Grayson, Ky (population 3834) instead.

      My guess is it’s based off of your IP address. You’re probably routing through California and so that’s where speed test detects you as being.
