Usage

The connection can be used from the ATK port. A computer or Wi-Fi router can be connected directly to this port.

You can also connect your device to the wireless network Vuolukiventie1b.

A router must be used with the connection. ADSL and VDSL modems cannot be used, as the service is delivered via an Ethernet connection. The recommended minimum requirements for the router are:

  • WAN and LAN ports must support 1000 Mbps Ethernet speeds
  • Wi-Fi 6/AX standard is recommended for wireless connectivity
  • Ethernet cables should be at least CAT6 standard

Each connected apartment will receive one (1) IPv4 address, so devices should be in routing mode.

Testing the housing company internet speed

We recommend using the free Speedtest® by Ookla application to test the connection speed.
Do not use the browser version, as it can provide inaccurate results.

How to Perform a Speed Test

  1. Connect your computer via cable to the SuomiCom housing company broadband.
  2. Download and install the appropriate Speedtest app for your device. Download links are available alongside this page and on the official website.
  3. Open the application, select Speedtest server: Suomi Communications Oy, Espoo and start the test.

Important Notes

Ensure you are not on WiFi during the test, as wireless connections limit speed and can give inaccurate results. Test the speed directly from the Ethernet port in the apartment’s distribution cabinet for the most accurate results.

For 1000/1000 Mbps speeds, the Ethernet cable should be at least CAT5e or newer. The computer’s network card must support at least 1 Gbps speeds for the test to be reliable.
