Siminn Speed Test

This page provides a reliable internet speed test (hraðamæling) for Siminn customers in Iceland. Whether you are on the ultra-fast Ljósleiðari (Fiber) network or using 4.5G/5G home internet, check your connection performance here.

Siminn is Iceland's oldest and largest telecommunications provider, offering cutting-edge fiber speeds up to 10 Gbit/s through its "Heimilispakkinn" (Home Package) services.

Interpreting Your Siminn Results

Download Speed:
- 1000 Mbps Fiber: You should see results between 900-940 Mbps on a wired connection.
- 10 Gbit/s Fiber: Requires specialized 10G network cards and routers to fully test. Most consumer devices will cap at 1 Gbps or 2.5 Gbps.

Upload Speed:
- Ljósleiðari: Siminn fiber plans are typically symmetrical. A 1000 Mbps plan should offer ~1000 Mbps upload, ideal for cloud backups.

Ping (Latency):
- Fiber: Extremely low, often < 5ms to local Icelandic servers.
- International: ~30-40ms to UK/Europe servers.

Common Troubleshooting

Blinking Red Internet Light: This signals a loss of connection to Siminn.
1. Check that the fiber converter (ONT) is powered on and has green lights.
2. Ensure the Ethernet cable connects the ONT to the router's WAN port.
3. Restart the router by unplugging it for 30 seconds.

Slow Wi-Fi: Iceland's concrete homes can block Wi-Fi signals. Ensure your router is central or consider using Siminn's mesh Wi-Fi extenders.

Wired vs Wi-Fi Testing

To verify gigabit speeds, you must use a Cat6 Ethernet cable connected directly to your Siminn router. Wi-Fi tests are limited by your device's antenna and distance from the router.
