PLDT Remains the Philippines' Undisputed Fastest Fixed Network
With a four-peat record at the Ookla Speedtest Awards, PLDT remains the undisputed fastest fixed network in the Philippines. PLDT achieved the fastest download and upload speeds in the latest Speedtest Awards for Q1-Q2 2021.
Ookla noted that the telco giant recorded top download and upload speeds of 113.2 Mbps and 136.61 Mbps, respectively. This was culled from data comparing millions of consumer-initiated tests taken on Speedtest® platforms. These include speed tests using computer devices connected to a fixed network, as well as over a Wi-Fi connection.
PH’s Undisputed Speed Leader
This is the fourth consecutive year since 2018 that PLDT gained the top spot awarded by Ookla, the global leader in broadband network intelligence. Analyzing internet speed data per city, Ookla places the biggest emphasis on a network’s download speeds and median speeds as those represent what most customers experience on a day-to-day basis. Ookla assessed the best network speeds attained across a given network, accounting for tests that are taken on various Speedtest platforms.
