When I got home, I opened my Mint account and 1GB is gone. On the phone, I looked up the data usage, and OOkla speed test was the culprit, at 0.96GB of mobile data, all "foreground" data. How could it be THAT much? Or is this normal?

In my case, for example, if I select a server that belongs to my ISP I often get a result that more or less represents my line attainable rate. If on the other hand I choose a different server, also in the same area, I get a result that's closer to my contracted speed.

I just reinstalled speedtest-cli on my router. It was about 10.5 MB. Make sure you have enough space before installing. You could probably delete most of the pip dependencies after installing speedtest. Ill try out which packages when I have some time. Now my speeds match my desktop but ping is definitely higher on the router, 4-5 ms on PC and 11-12 ms on OpenWRT.

The Python Speedtest is very different from the Ookla speedtest, and in my experience gives poor and erroneous results. I have a Raspberry Pi 4B I am using with OpenWRT. Before I installed OpenWRT on it, I ran up Raspian and installed the Python Speedtest. It only gave me around 80Mb/s even though my Virgin Media UK service was capable of 360Mb/s. I then downloaded the compiled Speedtest binary from Ookla and even when specifying the same server as the Python version, the results were much different - I got around 350-360Mb/s on every pass.

I tried downloading the Speedtest binary on OpenWRT on my Pi4B with OpenWRT, and it won't run. I installed the Python version and it gives better results (around 176Mb/s). My Pi has a USB3 ethernet interface connected to my modem, and the internal interface connected to my internal GB switch. A PC connected to the internal network which accesses the internet via the Pi, when running the binary from Ookla, still gets 360Mb/s, so the Python app is still wrong..

Is anyone aware that there are ARM packages of Ookla Speedtest CLI? Not sure if there any dependencies but there is just a single executable in the archive.

I understand the iPad has its own device limitations but the question originates why one app is reasonable speeds vs the other in speed measurement. It appears the ookla app is consistently slow across all tested platforms but the nighthawk app reflects speeds more inline with expected processing.

Speed tests are really not always reliable. My ISP, Spectrum, has its OWN Ookla site even. Why? Because it measures TRUE SPEED on thier network. No outside delays, such as long routings, packet loss, jitter, caused by normal traffic on the web.

I consider the test result only an indicator of if my ISP is working. Off from rated speed by 20% (and I don't know the reason) then I contact the ISP. Wireless, even AC devices might not be able to handle full GB speeds, where a wired GB device will come close.

I just set up my new CM600 modem a few nights ago because my Orbi 2200 router was being unreliable. I bought the Orbi router has really helped cover my duplex apartment with good, reliable WiFi. I have the main router hub downstairs near our home office and the satellite upstairs near the living room. Part of the speed problems I've had were related to Spectrum internet service, which can't be blamed on the router.

However, one thing I noticed about the Orbi router is that the app includes a "Speed Test" service. After setting up the router, I was consistently told by the app on my phone (iPhone 8 Plus) that my download speeds were 200+ mbps, which was great and much better than my old internet speeds! My internet service plan from Spectrum is supposed to get me 200 mbps downloads. The Orbi app says their speed test is provided by Ookla, who also have their own speed test website and app on iphone. What I found out was that on my iPhone Orbi app, my download speeds were rated as 200+ mbps, but only 30-35 mbps on the separate Ookla speed test app (both are run from my phone). I checked the Speed Test website on my laptop in the same location and also got 30-35 mbps. This leads me to believe that Netgear may be using the Ookla Speed Test service, but they are manipulating the numbers on the app to make their router look faster and better as the numbers are inconsistent. On 3/26/2019 around 11:09 pm the Ookla Speed Test app measured a download speed of 39.5 mbps, whereas the Orbi Speed Test (powered by Ookla) measured 209.32 mbps download at 11:11 pm. You may notice that on 3/27/19 the Speed Test app screen shot (darker background) the speeds doubled, because that's after I upgraded by cable modem from an older Arris model to a Netgear CM600. However, strangely, the Orbi Speed Test app didn't measure much of a change in download speed after the modem upgrade.

The built in app with the orbi is hardwired into the orbi. So its going off a hardwired speed. I notice your screen shot is from a wireless device. The wireless device might be connected to teh 2.4ghz or if its on 5ghz might be having interference in your area. Try hardwiring in your laptop and testing the speeds that way. That'll give you an accurate measure of your speeds. Your results of that dictate the best way to troubleshoot this to be a connectio problem to a wireless issue.

That makes sense. I was hoping the Orbi app's speed test functionality would allow me to determine the best location for satellite routers by testing the speed from my wireless devices, but if it only tests the speed of the main router connected to my modem, then that doesn't seem to be the case and I would need to use a third-party solution. Thank you.

Speedtest is the app that the built in Orbi uses. You can use the same app on your phone for testing placment. Keeping in mind, you should run the test several times because Orbi will dynamically change 2.4-5ghz as needed for speed.

Most large downloads [over the web] and streaming services operateover a single connection to the server, so it makes sense to measurethe throughput available over a single connection. Personally this ismy preferred test when comparing ISPs even though it may not show whatthe connection is capable of with multiple simultaneous connections.

Try DSLReports instead. It does use different metrics & one could claim it's a 'better' objective test - but more importantly, most ISPs seem to have forgotten to prioritise it, so it can be more accurate as a real-world comparison. It will also test for bufferbloat.

*As mentioned in comments, don't confuse the naming of 'multi-threading' with that normally associated with CPU threads. This is about multiple simultaneous connections.

Also note that bufferbloat is usually of far greater significance than a flat-out speed test, under real-world conditions.

I have the same question, and want a better understanding as to how this works. My thinking and this is without confirmation but that use of one thread to connect is what a single device would use when they are say downloading a file they have a one thread like a 2.4 or 5 but only one can be in use for that device on that download..... So it seems testing this would be a real world type thing for you can never hasve more than one connection to a download at one time, RIGHT??Like I said I am not sure if I am getting this at all right so please explain so I may understand this correctly.

The most common question that people ask us is why their results here differ from speedtest.net. I want to explain something that may help you understand why this is.


According to the Ookla Wiki [updated link] the following is true about your tests taken at speedtest.net...

Throwing away the fastest 10% and slowest 30% of the results in my opinion does not make for an accurate test. Isn't THAT the data that you're here to see?


Also note this isn't only true for speedtest.net. Ookla is huge, most of the speed tests online run their software.

Multithreading makes your connection look better

Ookla speed tests are also multithreaded. Meaning that they open more than one connection to the host and combine the speeds. This often can mask congestion issues. For instance, imagine that you have a pipe along your route that's limiting you to 10 Mbps. If you open more than one connection through that pipe you'll be able to achieve a faster speed... but testing that way will not clue you in that there is actually a problem along the route. Remember, you shouldn't have to multithread your connection to pull your full speed. 0852c4b9a8
