Children's safety on the internet is largely the responsibility of parents. Therefore, we have prepared a comprehensive guide to protecting children online. You'll learn how to communicate openly with them about risks, set boundaries, and protect their privacy.

A new study has revealed a worrying fact: Starlink satellites from SpaceX, intended to provide internet, produce disruptive radio emissions that threaten space observations by radio telescopes. Emissions from the second generation of Starlinks are up to 30 times stronger than the previous generation, posing a serious problem for astronomers.

On this site you can test your internet connection for free.

We recommend you to lower or stop all other internet activities during the test. In other cases the test results are less precise.

Outputs of this test:

  • download broadband speed test - what speed are data from the testing server downloaded by
  • upload speed - what speed are data to the testing server uploaded by
  • web ping - the time needed to send and receive a small amount of data, quite similar to regular ping, but tested by a TCP packet through the HTTP service

How do Internet speed measurements work?

From the user’s perspective, everything is simple. In the web browser, click on the measurement button and wait. Before starting the speed test, it is important to deactivate all tasks, applications and devices that could use the capacity to connect to the Internet. The results would be affected by that and you would not find out anything, or the conclusions would not have the required notification value.

The technical solution and the background of the speed test itself are complex, but to explain it in a few words and very simplistically, the test simulates a situation in which you download or upload data. The measured values ​​are calculated depending on the speed of these transmission. You can test the speed of up to 30 test servers located in geographically different locations.

Network ethernet cables are typically used for data transmission. However, the IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at standards also define the function of power over a network cable. This way, you can power small network devices without the need for an additional power cable. Let's focus on the advantages and disadvantages of PoE (Power over Ethernet) and its specifics.
