<h2 dir="ltr" style="text-align:center" id="tag-2"><strong>What does internet speed mean? </strong></h2>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">Generally speaking, internet speed refers to the rate at which data and information move from one place on the internet to another. </p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">Download speed and upload speed are among the key factors determining how fast a connection is. That's why in the internet speed test results, the current download and upload rates are always included.</p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">Though both download and upload speeds are measured in Mbps - Megabits per second, they mean different things. While upload speed tells how fast the data can travel from your device (PC, smartphone, or others) to the internet, download speed refers to how fast the data can move from a server on the internet to your device. </p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">The faster the speeds, the better. Faster download and upload speeds mean you can receive and send data quicker. </p>

<p dir="ltr" style="text-align:justify">For the average user, download speed seems more important than upload speed since most common online activities require downloading data. However, the upload speed also matters to our internet experiences, especially when it comes to activities involving uploading large amounts of data.</p>
