<p style="text-align:justify">In general, having an "internet speed" of 500 Mbps indicates that your home modem and your ISP's modem are both capable of that maximum speed (and, quite possibly, limited internally to never exceed it).</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">However, even in the middle of the night, you'll need to be downloading from a server that can deliver data at 500 Mbps to reach that speed. If you choose a server that only allows 10 Mbps per connection, that's all you'll receive.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">You'll also need all of your connections to the server to be capable of 500 Mbps, and you'll need that much more bandwidth when you try to download.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">The less likely this is, the more network hops between the server and you.</p>

<p style="text-align:center"><em>500 Mbps high-speed broadband plans to improve productivity</em></p>

<p style="text-align:justify">Furthermore, your ISP does not provide enough bandwidth to your neighborhood for everyone to be downloading at 500 Mbps simultaneously. The connection (probably fiber) that serves your neighborhood has a maximum bandwidth limit, which you must share with other neighbors on the same local network appliance. Don't expect to obtain the rated speed if you try to download something late at night when everyone is online.</p>

<p style="text-align:justify">You must also be able to consume data at a rate of 500 Mbps. This should be no problem for a contemporary PC connected to your modem through a 1 Gbps wired network line (or through switches that are all capable of 1 Gbps). However, you are unlikely to have both a wireless router and a wireless device capable of 500 Mbps/s.</p>

<h2 dir="ltr" id="tag-88"><strong>Internet speed test</strong></h2>

<p style="text-align:justify">If you already have a service but aren't sure how fast it is, you can use one of the <strong><a href="https://gospeedcheck.com/article/internet-speed-test-723" target="_blank">Internet speed tests</a> </strong>like Speedtest or MySpeed to find out. They basically operate by delivering test samples of data to several remote servers in the same manner you would while browsing the web. The average upload and download speeds of those particular bits of data are then shown, giving you a decent picture of what you're dealing with.</p>
