To understand how accurate all these results are, we need to find out if the test really shows us what our actual internet speeds are day-to-day or not. Ookla is a very popular speed testing service used by millions of people. Ookla was founded in 2007 to provide consumers and businesses across the globe with a better way to measure, monitor, and manage broadband internet performance. The software measures this by sending data through the 'net to a central server located on one of two locations (one in Seattle, one in Provo, Utah) via User Datagram Protocol UDP port tester protocol. Ookla, the world's most popular website for testing internet speed is being accused of cheating by users who say their real-life speeds are much faster than what they get on their Ookla-provided results. Telus median upload speeds were slower than Videotron, Fido and Rogers, while its latency score was edged out by Fido (25 ms).The Ookla broadband speed test, also known as the Net Index Broadband Speed Test, informally known as "Speedtest", and formerly called "Broadband Reports" or simply "BT" (standing for bandwidth test), is a system for testing the true download speed of an internet connection over a period of time. Telus saw the latest download speeds in Ontario and Manitoba, while its median speeds year over year continue to see an upward trajectory. The most popular device was the iPhone XR (surprisingly), followed by the iPhone 12 Pro Max, iPhone 11, iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 8.

Median download speed was at 76 Mbps and upload at 8 Mbps, with 26 ms latency. The speed scores are based on tests taken by iOS and Android users via the Speetest mobile app, with 176,586 tests taken on Telus.

“More than ever, Canadians value a fast, reliable connection, and the consistent recognition from independent, third-party organizations, such as U.S.-based Ookla, reinforces the superiority of TELUS’ world-leading mobile network,” said Darren Entwistle, President and CEO, TELUS, in an issued statement. Rogers was in third place at 74.24, followed by Fido at 72.74 and Videotron at 51.51.

This marks the fifth year in a row and the eighth consecutive time the wireless carrier has won this accolade.īased on Ookla’s Speed Score results, Telus edged out Bell with a score of 85.21 versus 80.49. Telus has been named the ‘fastest mobile network’ in Canada by Seattle-based Ookla, yet again.
