WiFi Speed Test

AIM (Aggregated Internet Measurement) Score is Bolt Bunny's proprietary 0-100 metric that combines download speed (40%), upload speed (20%), ping/latency (25%), and jitter (15%) into one easy-to-understand number. 85+ is Excellent, 70-84 is Good, 50-69 is Fair, and below 50 needs attention. It's a Bolt Bunny exclusive — no other speed test gives you a single quality score.

Yes. Bolt Bunny's internet speed test is 100% free with unlimited tests, zero ads, zero tracking, and no signup required. Optional Pro ($5/mo) and Business ($19/mo) plans add test history, analytics, scheduled tests, and API access — but the core speed test with AIM Score is always free.

Just click Start Test — Bolt Bunny measures your download, upload, ping, and jitter in about 20 seconds and combines them into a single AIM Score. It runs right in your browser with no app, signup, or credit card. For the most accurate reading, close other apps and, if you can, connect over ethernet.

Bolt Bunny uses 8 parallel download connections and multi-stream upload testing to saturate your bandwidth, similar to how real applications use your connection. Tests run for 10 seconds (download) and 6 seconds (upload) for reliable results. For best accuracy, use a wired ethernet connection and close other apps.

Both are useful. A wired ethernet test shows the maximum speed your ISP actually delivers, while a WiFi test shows what your devices really get. Running Bolt Bunny on both lets you see how much speed your wireless setup is losing to distance, walls, or interference.

Yes. Bolt Bunny runs in any mobile browser on iPhone and Android with no app to install, and you can add it to your home screen as a PWA for one-tap testing. It works on both WiFi and cellular (4G/5G) connections.

Fast.com focuses mainly on download speed, and Speedtest.net by Ookla shows separate numbers alongside ads. Bolt Bunny is 100% free with no ads or tracking and is the only test that combines download, upload, ping, and jitter into a single 0-100 AIM Score, so you instantly know whether your connection is Excellent, Good, or Fair.

Yes. Bolt Bunny runs entirely in your browser, shows no ads, and never sells your data. The free test needs no account or personal details. Your test history is only saved if you choose to create an account and upgrade to Pro.

Zoom recommends 3.8 Mbps download and 3.0 Mbps upload for HD video calls. For group calls with screen sharing, aim for 10+ Mbps each way. Low ping (under 100ms) and low jitter (under 30ms) matter just as much for smooth, stutter-free calls. Use Bolt Bunny's AIM Score to check your overall call readiness.

Speed tests vary because of server location, number of parallel connections, test duration, network congestion, and whether they measure TCP or HTTP throughput. Bolt Bunny uses CloudFront CDN servers close to you and 8 parallel streams to give the most realistic measurement of your available bandwidth.

Yes. With Bolt Bunny Pro, every speed test result is saved automatically, giving you trend charts, detailed analytics, and data export. You can also schedule tests to run automatically and get email alerts when your speed drops below a threshold.

Test whenever you notice slowdowns, after changing your internet plan, when troubleshooting connection issues, or weekly to track your connection quality over time. Bolt Bunny Pro saves unlimited test history so you can spot trends.

Restart your router, use ethernet instead of WiFi, move closer to your router, update your router firmware, check for background downloads, and close unused apps. 5GHz WiFi is faster than 2.4GHz for nearby devices. If speeds stay well below your plan, contact your ISP.

Jitter measures the variation in your ping times — how consistent your connection is. Low jitter (under 10ms) means stable, predictable performance. High jitter causes audio and video stuttering on calls, lag spikes in gaming, and buffering while streaming. It's one of the four metrics in your AIM Score.
