Speed & Latency Testing

Friendly’s Speed & Latency Testing solution meets global compliance standards by offering rigorous testing processes that ensure accurate, real-world performance data:

  • Speed Testing
    Download and upload speeds are tested regularly to verify compliance with regulatory performance standards. Each test includes load-check protocols that reduce interference from active consumer traffic, ensuring precise measurements for consistent and reliable data reporting.
  • Latency Testing
    Designed to meet various regulatory standards, latency tests are conducted at a minimum rate of one test per minute during active hours, providing ongoing visibility into network responsiveness. When network load exceeds specified thresholds, tests can be momentarily deferred to maintain accuracy under real-world conditions.
