Flow Barbados runs fibre-to-the-home across Bridgetown and the parishes, with speeds that climb into the gigabit range. If your evenings feel slower than your plan, test at peak hours and again late at night to see whether congestion or your own WiFi is the cause.

Frequently asked questions
How do I test my Flow internet speed in Barbados?
Press GO above. The test measures your real download, upload, ping and jitter from Barbados against our server. For the most accurate result, plug into your Flow router with an Ethernet cable and close other apps first.
Why is my Flow internet slow in Barbados?
Usually WiFi rather than Flow itself — distance from the router, walls, the 2.4 GHz band, or an older router. Peak-evening congestion and VPNs also cut speed. Test wired versus WiFi to find the bottleneck before contacting Flow.
Am I getting the Flow plan speed I pay for in Barbados?
Pick your plan in the test above and compare your result to the advertised download. Around 80% of your plan over WiFi is normal; you should see close to 100% on a wired test.
