GOMO broadband typical download speeds

The following is based on more than 200 measured readings for each Fibre Broadband plan across peak and off-peak hours. It is validated from Q1 2026.


Peak hours are generally from 7pm - 1am, while off-peak hours are generally from 1am - 7pm.

 

Fibre Broadband Plan
Typical Local Download Speed for Wired Connection* 
Typical Local Upload Speed for Wired Connection*
Typical International Download Speed for Wired Connection* 
10Gbps Value     10Gbps Core  7452.69 - 8026.45 Mbps  7767.50 - 7859.68 Mbps  3798.17 - 4920.00 Mbps 

 

*The typical download speed range is computed to reflect that, at least 90% of the time, a user should experience the lower bound speed or higher. 

The broadband download speeds were computed based on the transfer of files between the end-user points and the speed test servers where the speed is determined by the time taken to complete the file transfers.

 

Two test clients located in Singapore (Queenstown & Serangoon) will be used, with local speed test servers located in Queenstown and Paya Lebar. While international speed test server is in Oregon, United States.

 

The list of file sizes used for testing are as follows: 

 

Type of Connection
No. of Streams
File Size/Stream
Test Duration
TCP  20 - 100  8k - 128 KBytes  20 - 40 secs 

 

The following was the end-user device used for the speed test: 

 

Manufacturer and Model
Processor
Memory & Storage
Network Interface Card
Dell OptiPlex Tower  13th Gen Intel®  Core™ i5-13600 (24 MB cache, 14 cores, 20 threads, 2.70 GHz to 5.00 GHz Turbo, 65W)  8 GB: 1 x 8 GB, DDR4  256 GB, M.2 2230, PCIe NVMe, SSD, Class 35  Intel X550-T2, 1G & 10G Base-T Dual Port 
ODROID-XU4  Samsung Exynos5  Octa ARM Cortex™- A15 Quad 2Ghz and Cortex™-A7 Quad 1.3GHz CPUs  2Gbyte LPDDR3 RAM at 933MHz (14.9GB/s memory bandwidth)  PoP stacked  10/100/1000 Base-T 

 

There are several factors that can affect your download speed. Follow these tips if you're not able to get the published download speeds: 

 

Please ensure your Computer's Hardware Specification meets the following minimum requirements: 

 

Windows User
Mac User
Windows 11 and above  MacOS 13 and above 
Intel i5-7600 Quad Core 3.5Ghz CPU System or better  Apple M1 chip with 8-core CPU, 7-core GPU, 16-core Neural Engine or better 
16GB RAM minimum  16GB RAM minimum   
Cat 6/6a Cable for 10Gbps Plan  Cat 6/6a Cable for 10Gbps Plan 
10 gigabit ethernet port (10G Base-T) PCIe Network Adapter with backward compatibility of 5/2.5/1G and 100Mbps; RJ45 port and built-in QoS (Recommended: ASUS XG-C100C)  10 gigabit ethernet port (10G Base-T) network card, or Thunderbolt 3 / USB 3.1 Gen2 port with Thunderbolt 3 to 10GbE NBASE-T RJ-45 adapter (Recommended: QNAP QNA-T310G1T) 

 

Check if applications are running background downloads that slow down your speed 
Check if any security software such as anti-virus and firewall are interrupting your network traffic, causing a slowdown in speed 
Limit the number of computers/devices concurrently connected, as heavy bandwidth usage can cause slowness in speed 
Use a Wired Connection instead of a wireless connection, as wireless connections are subject to environmental factors*

 

WiFi speed also depends on the extent of WiFi channel congestion, which tends to be congested during peak usage time, especially if you stay in dense residential units. Additionally, there might be heavy traffic at the Website/Application you are visiting, causing a slowdown in your experienced speeds. 

 

*Environmental factors include but are not limited to: Brick walls, Concrete flooring, Steel plate reinforced flooring, Thick structural wall, pillar (all with steel reinforcements), Filled fish tank, TV, Hi-fi, Mirror, CPU Casing. 

GOMO does not throttle or apply traffic shaping on any of its Fibre Broadband Plans, or to high bandwidth activities such as gaming or P2P traffic. Our fibre broadband is designed for enhanced speeds, coverage, and bandwidth. 

 

Factors that can affect download speed and internet traffic delivery include: 

Your computer/device configurations 
The software you're running, such as security and file-sharing software 
The number of people online in your area 
The type of websites (local or international) you are accessing 
The number of devices sharing your broadband connection 
Whether you are using wired LAN or wireless (WiFi) connection 

 

To optimize your broadband experience, consider the following: 

Use the right broadband device/equipment 
Choose the appropriate connectivity solution (wired LAN or wireless connection) 
Optimise (including the use of additional broadband device such as WiFi Mesh etc) according to the layout of your home to best suit your connectivity needs
