The NCHU speed test

http://nchu.speedtestcustom.com/ The NCHU speed test 0 4/5 stars ★★★★☆ Hans van der Graaf

In general, the NCHU speed test (NCHU stands for National Chung Hsing University) is not a recommended speed test, mainly because this speed test is a clone of Ookla's Speedtest.

Ookla

Ookla's Speedtest and its clones are accurate, use a lot of data and take a relatively long time to complete.

These three features account for 70% of the overall score we give to a speed test. It is therefore not surprising that almost all clones of Ookla's Speedtest have the same overall score.

For a proper comparison between NCHU vs Ookla, we will focus on the differences between NCHU's speed test and Ookla's.

Since there are so many Ookla clones, we have created a separate list of Ookla clones for this purpose.

The NCHU speed test is owned by the NCHU.

The NCHU speed test is a standard Ookla speed test

Pros

The NCHU speed test has the following pros:

  1. Significant less cookies than Ookla (1 instead of 21)
  2. Ad-free
  3. Zero Wave errors (instead of 2)

Cons

The NCHU speed test has the following cons:

  1. The connection is not secure
  2. We were not able to find a link to this speed test at NCHU's website

When to use NCHU

If you just want to know what your internet speed is, then read our advice for a better speed than this Ookla clone.

If you want to ask [company] what to do to get the advertised speed you have to test properly.

Preferably you use this speed test and perform this test on several days.

Keep in mind that your home network is usually the bottleneck.
