Download

After testing your connection's download speed, the results will show. We suggest a minimum of 5-10 Mbps for video playback.

Upload

Once your upload speed has been tested, the results will show. We suggest a minimum of 2-5 Mbps to upload video to Hudl.

How to Use Results

If you're getting a yellow or red frowning face on your upload or download speeds, we suggest connecting to a different network. If you're using Wi-Fi, another solution could be manually connecting to the internet using an ethernet cord.

If you've tried different wireless connections and the ethernet option, the next step would be to contact your internet provider. You can provide them the results from testing your connection.
