Statistics from the Vietnam Telecommunications Authority show that the average download with Vietnam's fixed broadband network in the first week of August was 59.34 Mbps. The average upload was 56.3 Mbps. Latency (Ping, Jitter) in the country was about 18ms.

Some provinces and cities with higher Internet speeds than the national average include Dak Lak, Phu Tho, Bac Ninh, Quang Ninh, Da Nang, and HCM City.

In the opposite direction, the provinces and cities with lower Internet speeds than the national average include: Dien Bien, Ha Tinh, Ha Nam, and Yen Bai.

According to the Vietnam Telecommunications Authority, the publicity of test results is a measure to ensure the interests of Internet users. Users can self-check and evaluate the quality on the basis of the network's commitment. Besides, network operators also can actively improve their service quality, to best serve users.

With the advantages of the i-Speed application, the Ministry of Information and Communications encourages people to install and use the i-Speed application regularly.
