FCC Speed Test

The FCC is offering an app for iOS and android to allow citizens to collect broadband access data for personal information and to support the government organization’s effort to better understand access issues (Verge article). Some screen captures follow. It was unclear to me when the term mobile broadband is used whether I am supposed to test the speed I get through my cable provider or through my phone company. Since the app recognizes both, I decided the FCC can sort out the data they want.

For the education community, I would think it would be very useful for these data to be differentiated by households with K12 students.
