Android: How to determine Network speed in android programmatically

Question

How to show a slow internet connection to the user when the network is connected Note: Not a network type (2G,3G,4G, WIFI)

Answer 1

You can't directly check it.

However, you could either ping a server and see if the response takes very long or doesn't come back at all.

You could also do a speedtest. In most applications this would not make much sense though, because it's a hog on the user's data.
