The category is aimed at services and providers broadly available, with consumer entry level pricing. While speeds are an important part of the category, it also takes account of overall service levels, packages, performance and more.

Thinkbroadband testing data will be used to determine the shortlist for the category. The data will inform the judging which will also take into account publicly available data from other sources such as Ofcom and trustpilot where possible. The technical testing will take place between 1st May to 30th June.

Notes on Technical Testing

Providers will be expected to ensure that thinkbroadband is able to identify their customers, e.g. provide details of IPv4 and IPv6 blocks that customers use and when a provider claims to have IPv6 support we do expect to see customers connecting via IPv6.

The tester used is embedded on this page https://st.thinkbroadband.com/ispa and we will email details when responding to registrations on how you can embed a copy on your own website to increase the test volume, for smaller entrants this is particularly important.

Results are also included from the full range of testers that thinkbroadband supplies to third parties too.

 

 

How to embed speed tester on your own website

Embedding the speed test is accomplished by wrapping it up in an iFrame, some code and a copy of the tester embedded using this code is shown below:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

<center> <div style="width:100%;max-width:600px;"> <iframe style="width:100%;height:490px;border:0;display:block;" src="//labs.thinkbroadband.com/ispa" scrolling="no" frameborder="no"> </iframe> </div> </center>

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If the dark styling is too contrasting to the rest of your webpage, you can change the iFrame link to be //labs.thinkbroadband.com/ispa/?site=omegajdsfjieDFD3 which uses a transparent background.
