Two things matter as it relates to the speed of your internet connection: the download speed and the upload speed. Download is the speed at which your computer receives data from the internet. In general, when you request a webpage, you pass a very small amount of data to the web called a request and the web page and all of the assets are downloaded to your computer. Upload is the speed at which your computer sends data to the internet (or cloud). This is mostly relevant when you are uploading pictures or videos from your computer to someplace on the internet. Generally, upload speeds are slower than download speeds as more customers have the need for downloading information from the internet, like loading web pages, streaming videos, etc. Download and upload speeds are both measured in megabits per second (Mbps). Check out our speed test for an accurate assessment of your current internet connection.

No. 1000 Mbps and 1 gig, or 1 Gbps, denote the same internet speed, just in different units of measurement. Both Gbps and Mbps are measurements of data transfer or, in other words, internet speed. Mbps stands for megabits per second. Gbps stands for gigabits per second. 1 Gbps, or 1 gig, is equal to 1,000 Mbps.

5G stands for "fifth generation," the most recent version of cellular/mobile technology. Although 5G is a mobile/cellular technology, it can also be used to deliver internet service to a residence. 5G home internet uses nearby cellular towers to send a signal to the modem/router in your home. The speed and reliability of that signal can be severely degraded by several factors, from how far it needs to travel to reach your home to objects that might stand in the way — think trees, buildings and even windows.

Note: 5G is different than 5 Gbps (5 gigabits per second, which is an Internet speed) and 5 GHz (a setting you might see on your wifi router).
