As part of the US’ plan to deploy broadband across the country, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is to implement The Consumer Broadband Test to ascertain the speed and availability of broadband across America.
Consumers will be able to access the FCC’s first ever mobile application at Apple and Android online stores. The Consumer Broadband Test measures the speed and latency of broadband. The resulting data will be available to consumers as well as the FCC.
