So don’t worry if your download and upload speeds are vastly different. Upload speeds tend to be much slower than download speeds since most of us do much less uploading than downloading. Your upload speed measures the rate at which you are able to add content to the internet or send messages, pictures and videos to others. On the other hand, a low download speed will leave you with long page load times and pixelated or laggy video streams. So, a high download speed will allow you to load internet pages instantaneously and enjoy online video streaming without buffering.

Your download speed is the rate at which your device is able to access content from the internet. The most important result from your broadband speed test is the 'download speed'.
