How to test Beeline home Internet speed

Share with a friend

If the user has doubts about the quality of the services provided by the provider, he should use the speedtest service. It is designed specifically to measure the speed of an Internet connection and allows subscribers to find out how well the operator performs his own duties.

At the same time, the reason for testing and checking the quality of the network can be absolutely anything, from just a slow connection, to freezing of online games and instability of traffic. However, those who wish can check the reliability of the connection without any reason, for control purposes.

If problems are detected, users will be able to call the contact center and ask service company representatives to fix the problem. However, it is worth considering that sometimes the quality of the connection is influenced by third-party factors that have nothing to do with the actions of the provider.

How to measure internet speed

To measure the speed of your Internet connection for free and find out the real quality of traffic, you need to:

1. visit our SPEEDTEST portal;
2. press the button prompting you to start testing;
3. wait while the program performs calculations;
4. see the results.

To make the results as accurate as possible, it is recommended:

• disable all programs and applications that use traffic in advance;
• disable updates and cancel downloads;
• disconnect other devices from your home Wi-Fi network or replace the wireless connection with a cable connection (LAN).

That is, users should turn off everything that can use part of the traffic and use the power of the line used by the subscriber. Otherwise, it will be almost impossible to obtain accurate indicators.

Data received from the service

Based on the testing results, users will become aware of 3 global indicators:

• download speed (Mbit/s), which is responsible for the time it takes to open websites, download videos and download files from the Internet;
• upload speed (Mbit/s), which shows the quality of video calls and is responsible for the time it takes to upload files to file hosting services;
• ping (ms) – an indicator indicating the time required to transmit a data packet to the server and receive it back (as well as the number of lost packets), relevant for online games.

It is impossible to select the most important indicator from the listed indicators, since their significance depends on the situation. In addition, with a reliable connection, all indicators should be at a decent level.

Normal incoming and outgoing ping speeds

It is impossible to name the optimal speed values, since they often depend on what tariff the user is connected to. It is the indicators of the tariff plan that you should focus on when comparing the test results with what should be.

It should be taken into account that the service measures speed in Mbit/s, and the subscription agreement may indicate other units, for example, MB/s, KB/s or Kbit/s.

It is also worth knowing that:

• download and upload speeds should be as high as possible;
• ping, on the contrary, should be minimal (ideally less than 10 ms).

What do the results mean?

What data?

Checking the basic results shows:

• download speed
  — download speed;
• upload speed
  — upload speed;
• ping
  - ping.

You will also receive PEAK and AVERAGE values ​​on the speed test from Beeline. The peak is the maximum option when checking the value of a certain parameter for your home Internet speed, and the average value speaks for itself.

Download Speed

This is the incoming network speed. The speed at which you DOWNLOAD files and/or receive information FROM the Internet. Important for those who play online games, download large files, and watch online videos.

Upload Speed

This is the speed at which files are UPLOADED onto the Internet FROM YOU. That is, for example, if you transfer a file to a cloud service so that you can then download and use it yourself, then expect an approximate upload speed (taking into account the limitations of the service itself, of course). It is important that sometimes by mistake in the Russian language UNLOADING is also called LOADING, which creates confusion - this is not entirely correct. In English, the terminology is clearer and does not cause discrepancies and differences in understanding.

Uploading is less important to consumers than loading. However, it is important for those who work on the Internet and periodically transfer some important data through it. However, most people store information on hard drives and removable media and download much more than they upload.

Ping

Ping - this term is also probably familiar to fans of online games. But even they do not always know the exact meaning. Ping is the time during which a small amount of data is transferred to the Network and back (in the same games - the exchange of information so that, for example, the result of your mouse click, which caused some change in the game - the character went in some direction - is processed by others players). Ping is counted in milliseconds.

The lower the ping, the better (unlike other results, where the higher the better).

Testing Internet speed with online services

In addition to our service, there are several other portals that allow you to conduct a speed test of Internet speed:

• Speedtest.net;
• 2ip;
• Yandex.Internetometer.

To use them, just repeat the procedure described above. Users need to visit any of the specified sites and click the button that launches the speed test. Then you just have to wait a little.

It is important to emphasize that all existing programs are extremely similar, since they use the same verification algorithms.

They send a data packet to the server chosen by the user (if the service allows you to choose) and receives the packet back. At this moment, the communication quality, speed and reliability of the connection are measured.

If using third-party services is not trustworthy, you can use the command line to measure. In addition, most providers have their own utilities for measuring network quality. They can be found on the websites of service companies.

In what cases is verification necessary?

There are obvious questions - why is a speed test necessary?

If this question arises, then you probably don't really need it.

Speed ​​must be measured or remeasured by those who very actively download, unload, and reload a large amount of data on the Internet, and voluminous ones at that. And it seems that the speed is significantly lower compared to what the provider claims.

Thus, there is a fact of fraud (but still this is extremely unlikely in the case of Beeline, rather negligence) or something is wrong with the client himself.

Accordingly, we'll figure it out. Nobody likes problems.

How to check internet speed on your phone

Most of the listed services allow you to conduct a speed test not only on a computer, but also on a phone. To do this, just download the official mobile application and use the program installed on your smartphone. If installing additional software seems inconvenient or inappropriate, you should use the method already described: visit the site using a mobile browser and run an online check.

It is important to emphasize that all the previously mentioned measurement rules are also relevant for the phone. Before testing, you should disable everything that could affect the accuracy of the results obtained. The above applies even to background programs, which usually do not manifest themselves in any way.

Rules for measuring speed

When checking an indicator such as speed, it is important to take into account many factors that affect the accuracy of the measurements.

What nuances should be taken into account when measuring Internet speed:

• during the speed test, you need to disable all third-party programs that take up Internet traffic;
• Do not measure your connection speed in bad weather. The accuracy of the test (and especially on portable electronic devices) can be significantly reduced;
• if you use online services to measure speed, then choose the server closest to you;
• do several tests in a row at once. This will allow you to average the obtained values ​​and understand what your speed actually is.

If all these conditions are met, you will have a correct Beeline Internet speed test.

What determines the speed of your Internet connection?

First of all, the quality of the connection depends on the provider, so if checking the actual Internet speed shows low results, you should look for a call center phone number. But it’s additionally worth remembering that network stability is affected by:

• network load level (increases in the evenings and on holidays);
• computer capabilities (low-performance devices cannot quickly execute all user commands);
• connection type (it is better to choose a cable connection than wi-fi);
• background programs and applications that can consume most of the traffic;
• updates (including Windows update);
• viruses and malware that have entered your PC;
• numerous devices connected to your home network.

Also, sometimes, when it comes to mobile or satellite communications, the quality of the connection is affected by weather conditions or network coverage.

How to increase internet speed

To increase Internet speed, it is enough to eliminate the interference listed above. For this you should:

• disable unnecessary programs;
• stop downloads and updates;
• change the connection type to LAN;
• check for viruses;
• check whether strangers have connected to the wireless wi-fi network;
• change server.

After that, all that remains is to re-measure using our service and find out whether the ping has become lower and the speed higher.

If the number of megabits per second has not changed, all that remains is to call the provider’s support service and ask for help from operators.

VimpelCom (owner of Beeline)

VimpelCom is a Russian telecommunications company that provides customers with mobile and fixed-line communications services, IP television, and Internet access via cable or wireless network. The company is the founder and owner of the Beeline trademark. Provides services primarily in the Russian Federation.

You can check the speed of VimpelCom broadband access using special services:

• 2ip.ru;
• ;
• nPerf etc.

Service verification is free of charge. The result shows download, upload and ping data. It is advisable to run the tests several times to get an average result.

Don’t forget to prepare your equipment for testing. The most accurate conditions can be obtained only after eliminating all third-party factors that could influence the results and final indicators of the test. Such factors include various downloads and programs that use traffic, reducing the stability of other systems. Sometimes even the users themselves are unaware of such programs.

Another nuance to keep in mind is the number of measurements. It is desirable that their number exceed 3-4 times a day. In this case, testing must be carried out at different times to eliminate the influence of temporary sources of problems.

The best providers in the Russian Federation

In addition to the main functions, the described aggregators collect statistics and compile their own rating of Internet providers in Russia. Leaders include:

1. AKADO;
2. Wifire;
3. Online;
4. Rostelecom;
5. MGTS.

After reading the rating, it is worth considering that the situation may change, therefore, if you decide to change your provider, you should check the list again to find out the Internet speed of the best operators in the country and know what to focus on when choosing a tariff plan and concluding a subscription agreement.

Preparing for the test

Checking your Beeline Internet speed online requires preparation.

Recommendations must be followed for accurate results:

• stop programs related to uploading/downloading
  - torrents, other browsers (if enabled), online radio, etc.;
• deactivate antiviruses
  - don’t worry, you won’t catch a virus in an Internet speed measuring program, especially an official one;
• deactivate proxies
  if you use them: proxies are protection, but they greatly reduce Internet speed. Again, it’s unlikely that a speed testing site will collect important data about you, don’t worry;
• make sure your connection is direct
  .

What technology does Beeline use to connect Home Internet?

Internet access technology: optical fiber to the building and twisted pair cable to the subscriber’s apartment.

Technology advantage:

• Internet access speed up to 300 Mbit/sec;
• connection occurs by connecting a cable to a PC or wi-fi router;
• When connecting to the Internet, a modem is not required;
• When connecting, you must have a network card/network adapter. (in most cases the hardware is built into the motherboard).

If all else fails

When all methods have been used to speed up the Internet, you can try to reduce the amount of information downloaded by the browser from the network. You can try to achieve this by using your browser's anonymous mode or Turbo mode.

You can try changing the video playback quality to a lower one - the speed in such cases increases noticeably. It is worth disabling the display of advertisements and pictures.

If everything is really bad, buy a new modem and connect to a tariff that will provide faster speeds.

A drop in Internet speed upsets everyone, and if you still suffer from the inability to use the network normally, you may have to contact the Beeline technical support service - its specialists will help solve the problem.

Checking on a computer

It is recommended to conduct a Beeline speed test through the official website speedcheck.gldn.net online. It is wrong to take measurements through a router, because it is not capable of transmitting the entire width of the channel via a Wi-Fi signal. To do this, the cable is connected directly to the computer. You should measure the Internet in the morning, at lunchtime, in the evening and at night, and then compare the information. To check your Internet speed, you need to follow a number of rules:

1. Connect the Internet cable to the computer.
2. Pause the antivirus program.
3. Disable active applications.

The testing start button is located on the main page of the resource. Step by step steps:

1. Launch the BeelineHelper platform. Click on the “Internet Connection” shortcut.
2. Go to www.speedtest.net.
3. Select a city. Decide on hosting, choose Beeline.
4. Run the test.
5. After waiting for the procedure to complete, analyze the results.

The indicators declared by the supplier must correspond to the actual ones. If these indicators do not converge, and no other reasons affecting the data are found, you should contact your provider.
