Thank you for the effort made to participate. We have acknowledged your entry. @peacejoh
I found out that the network speed depends on location most times, I followed the procedures and launched the app after testing I got this as my result.
Though with this I'll say the speed is good for now though not always stable. I use 9mobile and a 4G bandwidth. I also thank @steeemcurator01 for solving the problems associated with creating account as this has been a problem between me and some of my friends who shown interest at the past though I'm yet to give it a try but I believe they'll be a difference.
This is more than a contest as it gives an educative clue and statistical evidence into our phone location Internet connections. Besides I tried downloading the speedcheck app from Google play store to my phone, and all effort prooved abortive as I was instructed that the app could be disruptive and malignant to my cell phone. So I went for speed test master pro which I used in checking mine.
Finally am grateful for participating and thanks to @focusnow for conducting this contest. This is my entry below.
Results from speed test master pro.
This is my internet speed level in my city, that shows;
(a.) Upload Speed
(b.) Download Speed
(c.) Connection type
(d.) Name of Internet Service Provider
(e.) Internal IP and External IP

Cool contest. Greetings to everyone. I am definitely participating in this contest.
Following instructions as given for the contest I clicked on the link provided later clicked on the speed test button and the results are as seen on the pictures below.
From the look of these pictures you can say the speed is quite good but normally it's not stable and has a lot of disruption hence limiting performance. This is my humble entry for the contest. Thank you @steemalive and @focusnow for making the contest available.

Using the above explanation, my phone space could not interpret the procedure not until our superb coordinator @focusnow showed me how to do it easily.
So I followed his procedure meticulously as he instructed and see my result below
Wonderful 👏👏👏👏.
Will love to participate in this contest.
