You can use the Xfinity app to run a whole home network test. This process will test the speed to your gateway to make sure your home is receiving the proper speeds. Now you can also run a speed test to your devices using the Xfinity Speed Test Webpage. If you're curous about the difference between speed to your gateway versus to speed to your devices the Test your speed to the gateway using the Xfinity app does a very good job of explaining.
speedtest.xfinity.com redirects to "https://www.xfinity.com/learn/internet-service/speed-test" with no way to test web based in browser. Is this permanent?
@markos11 Our apologies or any inconvenience this has caused you. Thanks for letting us know of the redirect to the Xfinity app for the speed test. In the meantime you can use any speed test website.

Please let the developer team know that many long time comcast users like me want to run the speed test in a browser not the xfinity app. I do not want to install a pc app to perform this task which was easy when the webpage provided a speed test for the device. Please put the old feature back on the xfinity speed test webpage.
@XfinityJustinM You stated "You can use the Xfinity app to run a whole home network test". I used to be able to quickly test my internet speed using the browser speed test. I wish that was still available. However, I installed the Xfinity app on my Android phone and when I tap on the speed test this device it just takes me to the web page which says to test the speed in the app. I am in a vicious circle. I'm paying for 600MB download speeds and 3rd party sites are saying I'm at 1-1.5Mbps. I wanted to see what Xfinity claimed I was getting before reporting a problem. It is UNACCEPTABLE to not be able to run your speed test. Please post some sort of instructional text/video which explains exactly how to do the speed test (at the gateway) in the Xfinity app.
