Ever wondered how your internet connection could be faster and more reliable? Join me in a conversation with Bryan Darr, VP of Government Affairs at Ookla, as we explore the cutting-edge tools and technologies making this possible. Bryan walks us through the incredible journey of Ookla, their acquisition of Mosaic, and the global impact of their tools like Speedtest, DownDetector, RootMetrics, and EchoHau. With over 650 million installations worldwide, we also dive into federal funding programs like BEAD, which aim to bridge the digital divide in underserved areas.
What happens to your internet during a natural disaster? Reflecting on recent calamities such as the hurricane in Puerto Rico and the wildfires in Lahaina, Hawaii, we discuss how power outages and connectivity loss affect communities. You'll learn how valuable data from speed tests and mobile applications provide critical insights into network performance and resilience. We also highlight the life-saving roles of emergency networks like Starlink and FirstNet, which restore communication for first responders when it matters most.
Get ready for a sneak peek into the future of network testing! Evan shares the challenges and exciting opportunities following Ookla's acquisition spree, and the launch of Speedtest Insights—a comprehensive portal for analyzing network performance. Plus, don’t miss out on the Speedtest Awards, which recognize the best networks across the globe and set industry standards. As we wrap up, we look ahead to Ookla’s ambitious initiatives and the transformative power of data analytics in enhancing our connectivity experience. This episode is packed with insights you won't want to miss!
