Why is my Videotron internet so slow?


Your Videotron internet could be slow for a number of reasons related to hardware, proximity to your router, and the plan itself.

  • Unplug and restart your computer and router.
  • Connect your computer to the modem with an ethernet cable.
  • Reboot your computer.

Is this Videotron speed test accurate?


Yes, this Videotron speed test is accurate. Our Telus speed test detects your approximate location and finds a server closest to you.

We recommend halting all internet activity by closing background apps and other internet-connected devices to ensure the most accurate results.
