Measuring download and upload speed does not require any software to be installed in your PC. It is simply a matter of transferring a small, non-executable data file from the test server to your PC, and then moving the file back to the server from your PC. That’s all that is needed to be done. One of the safest websites to test your broadband download speed is here at testinternetspeed.org.
