When the test is finished successfully, you will notice 3 major columns :
- Ping – Try to get this as low as possible for a better internet experience.
- Download Speed – It displays the rate at which any file is being downloaded on our devices. Higher it is, better is the connection.

3. Jitters
Jitter is the variation in latency measured with the variability over time of the packet latency across a network; in simple language it is the jerk experienced by the Internet connection. A network with constant latency has no variation (or jitter). Packet jitter is expressed as a mean of deviation from the network mean latency.
4. Packet Loss
Packet Loss is the percentage of data “packets” sent to a server that never arrives. Anything above 0% should be a matter of concern since it could result in poor quality VoIP and stuttering in online games.
