When your connection fails, checking several devices and comparing Wi-Fi with a wired connection can help narrow down the problem. No single test always confirms where the fault lies.
On 25 August 2026, the CNMC published a revamped version of its speed test. Here is what official sources document, what the tool lets users check, and why a single measurement should not be overinterpreted.
The sources consulted confirm that the CNMC offers a speed test and publishes open data, but they are not enough to support a news report about a recent change to Internet in Spain. We explain what they allow us to say and how to verify a development before publishing it.
The CNMC’s official tool can measure fibre, Wi-Fi and 4G/5G mobile connections. Here’s how to read a one-off test, reduce sources of confusion and collect useful data without treating the result as a definitive diagnosis.
The CNMC tool can measure aspects of an Internet connection and produces aggregated data from user tests. This provides useful information about service quality, but does not by itself prove that a recent change has taken place on the Internet.
Download, upload, and latency describe different aspects of a connection. Learn how to interpret the result and repeat the measurement to distinguish a Wi‑Fi, device, or Internet-access issue.
