Internet speed

Long ago have passed those times when the Internet was necessary to the ordinary user only to check the mail, well and to send electronic pismeets. Yes, then it was possible to be satisfied very much with low-speed communication – through lines of ordinary wire phone – by means of the so-called telephone modem. Such communication was called as dial-up (dayl-ap) and when the person was in network, its phone actually stayed idle. But it was long ago – nearly twenty years has passed.

Now at us has gone the second ten twenty first eyelids – the broadband Internet is not surprising already in the separated villages. And the first question to provider which services are going to use, always same: and what connection speed at you Internet? We already have also forgotten those times when there was such concept as megabyte cost. Certainly, now communication at all (or at vast majority of users) unlimited, that is not limited – swing how many will get!

The user should know it

For what the user needs to know about it? And really high speed – on work is necessary for someone, or to download any movies, either to watch television, or to play online games, someone is interested for prestige reasons (than higher at you the speed of the Internet, subjects you more abruptly).
So in what Internet speed is measured? If it is simple, it is volume received (or transferred) via your computer of information in unit of time. As such unit usually consider second, and information volume (its quantity) – kilobit or megabit. It turns out that if your connection is provided with speed, let us assume, of 256 Kbps, then the capacity of your connection – 256 kilobits per second or (in bytes) the 32nd kilobyte per second. At present it, of course, terribly low speed. Now usual (so to speak cruiser) speed begins with 10 megabits a second, the Internet and speed of connection became better not much even, and on some orders.

First try, then trust.

Certainly, users the word do not take the providers and from time to time check the speed of the connection. Here the question, of course, not only in belief – sometimes communication temporarily sharply worsens, and therefore anyway it is necessary to check Internet speed. And to do it periodically - with certain frequency. Yes, high speed on the Internet – the major factor providing uninterrupted and, the main thing, comfortable work in network. It is clear that this speed interests not only those who professionally is engaged in Internet technologies, but also any, most ordinary user. Especially as now it can be done, for example, on the site http://provod .beeline.kz. It is possible to check speed quickly and free of charge directly on this site.
It must be kept in mind that the speed of connection is not always identical, and varies – depends on set of factors. But, if the received results differ from what are declared by provider more than for 10 percent then there are serious problems

Test of the Internet of speed

Of course, the phrase the test of the Internet of speed sounds clumsily and not really in Russian, but it is tracing-paper from English the Speedtest Test. By the way, carrying out such test it is rather frequent (at least – once a day), at the user of couples opportunity to seize the moment of sharp deterioration of situation with speed and immediately to complain to the provider. So if the Internet is necessary to you for online of viewing of movies in rather high quality, keep in mind that real speed at the expert has to be not less than 3 megabits a second. And it is better that was 4 and more than a megabits a second – so you will be insured from some differences of quality.
