Speed Test:
Test your Internet connection together with our partner, umlaut insight GmbH, regardless of whether you are outside, inside, on public transport, on the train, in the car, etc. Save your test results and find out where you surf the fastest with your smartphone.
Connection test:
When the connection test is switched on, the availability of an Internet connection is measured regularly. For example, it is determined whether the network operator used provides a mobile service at the location of the test, whether this comes via the GSM, UMTS or LTE network and what the reception level is.
With your help, we can create a coverage map of the individual network operators throughout Germany, which also works out regional characteristics.
