Include ordinary results alongside slow ones. A week of selected worst cases can exaggerate the pattern. A small set of regularly timed measurements is easier for another reader to interpret.

Record household activity during each test. A scheduled backup, console download, or camera upload can recur at the same time every day and should be considered alongside network conditions.

Avoid treating a nearby member’s result as a control experiment. Different plans, hardware, sky views, and local networks can produce different outcomes. Compare your own setup first, then state the limits of wider comparisons.
