Kentucky’s Broadband Initiative: Your Speed Test Matters!

Posted on 12 months ago

Do you have slow Internet or no Internet at all? Feel like your voice hasn’t been heard? You can change that!

It’s as easy as a Speed Test. 

Kentucky stands to receive a record amount of funding for broadband. To ensure that the funds go where they are needed the most, we need your help. Ready to make your case? Don’t worry if you’ve never done it before; we can walk you through it.

How to Complete Your Speed Test

Here are the steps:

  1. Use a Desktop Computer or Laptop: Make sure you are using a desktop computer or laptop for the most accurate results.
  2. Visit the Kentucky Speed Test Website: Go to www.soar-ky.org/challenge to start the process.
  3. Fill Out the Requested Information: Don’t worry, it is just basic information needed to complete the test.
  4. Repeat the Test: You will need to do this a second and third time to complete the process. You will receive a reminder and a link by email after your first test. Completing all three tests is required for your Speed Test to count.
