Key definitions
- Download speed refers to the speed of the connection when downloading information to your computer.
- Upload speed refers to the speed of the connection when uploading data from your computer.
- Latency is an expression of how much time it takes for a packet of data to get from one designated point to another. In the Measuring Broadband America study, latency was measured by sending a packet that is returned to the sender and the round-trip time is considered the latency.
+The actual performance of an individual customer's broadband service may vary based on technology, network traffic, and a number of other factors. The information above was derived from various tests and is provided for informational purposes only. It is intended to provide you with an indication of the speeds obtained during such network testing. These results may not be fully representative of each individual customer's experience, and did not include variables such as customer inside wiring and Wi-Fi networks, customer computer configurations, additional customer-generated traffic on the customer’s broadband connection, the performance to specific internet destinations that particular customers may be interested in, the performance of other internet-based content, applications and services, and other such factors.
*Data for 400/400 Mbps, 500/500 Mbps, 1 Gig, and 2 Gig tiers based on network-based testing using User Datagram Protocol (UDP). Results for the other tiers shown above are based on network-based testing using Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). UDP and TCP are two protocols used to send information between computers and other devices over the Internet. Results based on TCP testing may be lower than results obtained through UDP testing.
**The FCC’s Eighth Measuring Broadband America (MBA) report is the source of the data for the HSI 0.5-1 Mbps download / 0.192-0.384 Mbps upload tier. The FCC’s Ninth MBA report is the source of the data for the HSI 1.1-3 Mbps download / 0.384-0.768 upload tier. The FCC’s Second MBA report is the source of the data for the HSI 3.1-7 Mbps download / 0.384-0.768 Mbps upload tier. The data presented for the 7.1-15 Mbps download / 0.5-1 Mbps upload tier is based on historical Verizon lab testing from when the tier was introduced. Lab testing simulated internet-based network activity in an access network environment.
What factors can cause my service to vary?
The Fios network is used to provide other services, including Fios Video on Demand (VOD). The capacity available for Fios Internet access service may be reduced temporarily during times of significant utilization of Fios VOD in a particular area, if you watch multiple VOD titles simultaneously, or due to other unusual events such as a network outage or failure.
Verizon Online’s internet services are typically configured to use dynamic host-control protocol (DHCP) to provide subscribers with use of an internet protocol address, which may be a publicly routable internet protocol address or a privately managed IP address utilizing CGN (Carrier Gateway NAT) technology. Your broadband router or modem employs network address translation (NAT) to assign additional addresses for use by devices within your home network.

Verizon Wireless has used sound engineering principles in the design and operation of its broadband network to ensure a good user experience for all customers. An individual user’s experience will vary depending upon many factors, including the network (5G Ultra Wideband, 5G, 4G LTE, All Access Home Internet, or 5G Business Internet) the customer is using and the device in use. Verizon Wireless has implemented optimization technologies across its 5G, 4G LTE, All Access Home Internet, or 5G Business Internet networks to transmit data files in a more efficient manner to allow available network capacity to benefit the greatest number of users. These techniques include video caching and sizing video files more appropriately for mobile devices. The optimization process is agnostic as to the content itself and to the website that provides it. While Verizon Wireless invests much effort to avoid changing text, image, and video files in the optimization process and while any change to the file is likely to be indiscernible, the optimization process may minimally impact the appearance of the file as displayed on a customer's device.
In addition, in order to optimize customers’ video viewing experiences on their devices over our 5G, 4G LTE, and All Access Home Internet networks while ensuring a high quality experience for other users of the network, Verizon seeks to transmit video downloads or streams to smartphones at 720p, to devices with larger screens at 1080p, on the 5G Home, LTE Home, LTE Home Plus, and All Access Home Internet plans to 1080p, and on the 5G Home Plus plans to 4K, unless a different video resolution is disclosed in the description of a particular plan. This practice does not make any distinction based on the content of the video or the source website. To achieve this optimization, Verizon limits the throughput speeds of such video downloads or streams over our 5G and 4G LTE networks (which may be below the 35-143 Mbps 5G and 11-75 Mbps 4G LTE download speeds typically provided),and All Access Home Internet network. This practice results in the video provider’s content server sending the appropriate resolution video file for that speed, if available.
For 5G and 4G coverage information, see the Verizon Wireless Coverage Locator.
With respect to latency for use of real-time data applications, Verizon Wireless expects network to device (round-trip) latency to be 37-57 ms on its 5G Ultra Wideband network (mobile, 5G Home Internet and 5G Business Internet) and All Access Home Internet, 42-64 ms on its 5G network, and 49-75 ms on its 4G LTE network (mobile, LTE Home Internet and 5G Business Internet Plus). Latency ranges are based on the approximate 25th and 75th percentiles of multi-server network tests for the 6 months period ending August 31, 2024.
You must be using an approved, network compatible device and be within the Verizon coverage area to access the Verizon network. Whether you experience these speeds depends on many factors, including among others, the type of device, the programs running on the device, your location, and how many other customers are attempting to use the same spectrum resources (including both mobile broadband internet access and other non-broadband internet access services that share the network, such as Private Network Traffic Management, HD Voice, Push to Talk Plus, and MDM). For information on our network and testing of the network, visit our network awards page.
Why services may vary.
An individual user’s experience will vary depending upon many factors, including the network (5G Ultra Wideband, 5G, 4G LTE, or All Access Home Internet) the customer is using and the device in use. On certain plans, we may prioritize your data behind other traffic. If the cell site you are connected to begins experiencing high demand during the duration of your session, your data speeds may be slower than the other traffic’s. Once the demand on the site lessens, or if you connect to a different site not experiencing high demand, your speed will return to normal. Any such network management practices will be disclosed in the descriptions of impacted plans.
