Network: Understanding Your Home Network Connectivity

Question

How do you check your network speed to ensure it is adequate for remote work?

Answer

Adequate WIFI connectivity and capacity is dependent on the number of concurrent Internet users in your household.  Remote workers are expected to supply adequate and secure network connectivity in their homes.  Our recommendation is to have a minimum of 20 to 50 Mbps download speed to work effectively.  The more concurrent users in your home, the more Mbps you will need to support your work efforts.

To check your download rate, visit www.speedtest.net.

If you do not have adequate services on your home network, please follow-up with your Internet service provider to purchase a faster connection.
