The key to using these tests efficiently is to understand how they work and how to interrupt the results.  These tests can be very helpful for a person who has had internet connection or speed issues.

Online tests are not highly technical and can not replace the specialized testing of a professional. However, they are a very good indicator when a connection is running slow.  They can give a pretty good reading of the exact speed at which a broadband connection is running. 

They should be the first step for someone who suspects they are having problems with their internet speed.

Online UK broadband tests work in a fairly simple manner.  The web page captures and records how long it takes for the connection to download the page.  More goes into it to make it more precise, but that is the basics of how it works.  

It is recommended that a person runs the test more than once.  It should be ran at a few different times of day to get a good range of speeds. 

Most likely, each test will have different results.  This is because the internet can run slower at certain times of day than others. 

For example, if a user runs the test around 6 pm, then they are hitting a peak time, when many people are also going to be online and creating a cramped information highway.  The early morning hours of a weekday will produce the best speed rate.

It is also important for a user to understand that their internet speed will not likely be the top speed their ISP says they can provide.  

Rarely does a connection run at the top most speed.  It should be close, though, and if it is very low then there is a definite problem.  

However, a person must remember to run several tests throughout the course of a day or few days.  Weekends are the busiest time and so a person is likely to get low speeds no matter what time they run a test on a weekend.

UK broadband tests are great tools for any internet user to try.  They can often help a person narrow down a connection issue without having to waste time on the phone with their ISP.  

If the numbers are running low after several tests then the speed is the problem.  If the speed is pretty good then the problem lies elsewhere.
