The `fastdotcom` integration uses the [Fast.com](https://fast.com/) web service to measure network bandwidth performance.
|
|
|
|
<div class='note'>
|
|
|
|
Currently, the Fast.com integration only supports measuring download bandwidth.
|
|
If you want to measure bandwidth metrics other than download such as ping and upload, utilize the [Speedtest.net](/integrations/speedtestdotnet) integration.
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
Enabling this integration will automatically create the Fast.com Sensor.
|
|
|
|
By default, a speed test will be run every hour. The user can manually run a speed test via the `homeassistant.update_entity` service.

## Notes
|
|
|
|
- When running on Raspberry Pi 3 or older, the maximum speed is limited by its 100 Mbit/s LAN adapter.
|
|
- The sensor will return the maximum measured speed during a 15-second test.
|
|
- Speed tests consume data depending on your internet speed. Make sure to consider this if your internet connection has limited bandwidth.
