Technical inquiries about Ethernet
This check verifies the link between your device and Ooklas servers. Your local internet performance doesn’t affect the result. For a 9-year-old laptop, it uses a 100base NIC providing roughly 10MBps.
You might get a performance increase if your device has a USB 3.0 port and uses 100 Mbps fast Ethernet instead of Gigabit Ethernet, which was typical before the Sandy/Ivy Bridge era. This setup could help you run tasks that need quicker internet speeds.
