What does “symmetrical speeds” mean?

Simply put, it means your upload and download speeds are the same.

Most broadband providers prioritise downloads – slowing down your upload speed to manage network traffic. But with Zzoomm Full Fibre, your connection is symmetrical, so whether you’re downloading a massive file or uploading a high-res video, you get ultra-fast speeds both ways.

How do I perform a speed test?

Checking your broadband speed is easy. Just head to Zzoomm.com/speedtest and follow the on-screen instructions.

For the most accurate results:

  • Use an Ethernet cable if possible, it gives the best speed reading.
  • Limit device activity – pause streaming, downloads, or gaming while testing.
  • Test a specific device over Wi-Fi to see how it performs.

You can also try a third-party tester like Ookla for a second opinion.
