MyBroadband speed test results for June 2014 show that Cybersmart’s ADSL accounts provided the highest average speeds.
MyBroadband’s speed test server is hosted at Teraco/NapAfrica to ensure it offers a neutral testing environment.
Over the last month, 80,000 tests were performed on MyBroadband’s speed test server, which showed that Cybersmart, Vox Telecom and Afrihost have the highest average speeds on 10Mbps ADSL connections.
The fastest ADSL connection (10Mbps) is used for this comparison, because bandwidth constraints are accentuated at higher connection speeds.
The following table shows the top 10 average ADSL ISP speeds on 10Mbps connections for June 2014.
