Tips for getting good Google Fiber speed test results 

If you want the most accurate results from your speed test, here are some steps you can follow before you start. While these tips aren’t necessary to take the test, they can help ensure accuracy. 

• Disconnect other devices in your network that are connected to the internet. If you have multiple devices connected to the internet at once, they could take up significant bandwidth and impact your speed test results. 
• Close apps or web pages on your device that could be using up bandwidth. 
• Connect your device directly to your modem with an Ethernet cable. This will give you the fastest speeds possible from your internet plan and allow you to determine if your speeds are close to what Google Fiber advertises.
