Questions about this test
What speed should Spectrum deliver?
Spectrum's main tiers are around 300, 500 and 1,000 Mbps download. Upload is typically 10–35 Mbps on cable, with higher uploads in markets that have been upgraded. Wired tests at 85–95% of the plan are normal; Wi‑Fi will be lower.
Why is Spectrum slow in the evening?
Cable is shared with your neighbourhood, so 7–11 pm can be congested. Use monitor mode on this page to log speeds across a day; if evenings are consistently far lower, that's useful evidence when you contact Spectrum.
Should I use Spectrum's router?
The provided router is fine for basic use but often lacks Wi‑Fi 6/6E/7 and good bufferbloat handling. Many customers get better Wi‑Fi from their own router in bridge mode.
Is this affiliated with Spectrum?
No. gbps.run is independent and ad-free, and is not affiliated with any provider.
