Device speeds

When you run a web-based speed test, you see the download and upload speed on that one device. Your device speed may be slower than your plan speed, which can cause concern, but it's normal. Learn more about the expected WiFi speed for your device.

Device speed FAQs

Learn more about device speeds and what else impacts your WiFi speed and performance.

To reach its optimal speed, your device must use technology equal to or greater than your WiFi equipment. For instance, a brand new smartphone with WiFi 7 technology that is connected to WiFi 5 equipment won't reach the top speeds for that device. 

WiFi 6 pods Q9500
WiFi 7 wired pod W1700K

Please note that equipment is determined by region; specific WiFi pods cannot be requested.

Keep all personal devices updated with the latest firmware or software to help enable the most current WiFi speed capabilities. For computers and mobile devices, also ensure you run security scans regularly to prevent devices from becoming slowed down by malware.

Many factors in your environment can impact your WiFi speeds, including:

  • Distance between your device and the router or WiFi pod
  • Physical barriers, especially thick walls, large mirrors or fish tanks, or heavy appliances such as fridges
  • Electronic interference or "noise" from multiple devices or neighboring networks
  • Pod "oversaturation," or too many WiFi pods causing interference
