The collection cadence targets 5 seconds; the actual recorded interval can be longer.","validation":"A neighboring reading must reach at least half the peak rate. Server network traffic must also account for at least the transfer's bytes over the surrounding observation window.","rounding":"Nearest 5 Mbps at 10 Mbps and above; nearest 1 Mbps below 10; nearest 0.1 Mbps below 1."},"context":"An observed peak demonstrates achieved network capacity. Achievable speed depends on your broadband plan, device and route."}
