How do I test my Origin speed?

WiFi speeds are typically lower due to interference and device limitations. Test during evening peak hours between 7 PM and 11 PM to assess real-world performance during the busiest period.
Does Origin use its own network?
Origin broadband runs on the NBN network with wholesale capacity provided by Superloop. Origin does not own network infrastructure but purchases wholesale access. This is the same model used by most Australian ISPs. Network quality depends on how much capacity Origin purchases from Superloop. Origin also supports OptiComm fibre connections in select apartment buildings and estates.
