Attract guests with fast, reliable wifi

Test your network’s speed and showcase a top amenity.

Many guests rely on fast internet during their trip, especially if they stream video or work remotely. In fact, guests search for wifi more often than nearly any other amenity on Airbnb.*

Adding fast wifi to your listing helps it show up in search results. You can verify your connection speed using the wifi speed test.

Testing your wifi speed

You’ll need to be at your property to test your wifi speed. Make sure you’re connected to the wifi network and logged in to the Airbnb app on an iOS or Android device. 

Go to the Listings tab and select the listing you want. Tap Amenities and follow these steps:

  • Tap plus (+) to add wifi as an amenity, or tap Edit if you’ve already added it. 
  • Tap Start test (you may need to grant access to your network). 
  • When the results are in, tap Add to listing to display your wifi details on your listing.

After you add your wifi speed to your listing, guests will see that your place offers it as an amenity. If your reading is 50 Mbps or above, “fast wifi” will also appear as a highlight at the top of your listing.

Understanding your wifi speed

The wifi speed test measures connection speeds in megabits per second. Here are the different readings you might get.

  • 50+ Mbps: Fast wifi. Guests can stream 4K videos and join video calls on multiple devices. 
  • 25-49 Mbps: Snappy wifi. Guests can stream higher-quality 4K videos and join video calls.
  • 7-24 Mbps: Solid wifi. Guests can stream HD videos.
  • 1-6 Mbps: Basic wifi. Guests can check messages and browse the web.
  • No reading: You either don’t have wifi or can’t connect. Try rebooting your router or moving to another space on your property.
