Methodology

To determine Speedtest Awards winners for fixed networks, we assess the best network speeds

attained across a given network, regardless of the performance tier for which an individual is paying.

Also, access to ISP service happens over wired and Wi-Fi connections. As a result, we take into

account tests that are taken on various Speedtest applications that connect to a fixed network,

including test taken on mobile phones through a Wi-Fi connection. Each top carrier accounts for at

least 3% of the sample size in the geographic area.

How Speed Score Works

The Speedtest Awards for top providers in speed are determined using a Speed Score that

incorporates a measure of each provider’s download and upload speed to rank network speed

performance (90% of the final Speed Score is attributed to download speed and the remaining 10%

to upload speed). The Speed Score uses a modified trimean to demonstrate the download and

upload speeds that are available across a provider’s network. We take speeds from the 10th

percentile, 50th percentile (also known as the median), and 90th percentile, and combine them in a

weighted average using a 1:2:1 ratio, respectively. We place the most emphasis on the download

speeds and median speeds as those represent what most network providers’ customers will

experience on a day-to-day basis.
