How to Run a Nova Speed Test

Connect via Ethernet — For the most accurate baseline, connect your device directly to your router or modem with an Ethernet cable. Wi-Fi introduces variables that can mask your true plan speed. See our accuracy guide for full tips.
Close background apps — Pause streaming, downloads, and backups. Other devices on your network also consume bandwidth.
Start the speed test — Click GO on our homepage. The test measures download, upload, ping, and jitter in about 30 seconds.
Compare your result — Check your measured speeds against the typical Nova results above. If you're significantly below your plan speed, review the common issues section below or contact Nova support.
