The second thing would be your ISP throttling the steam download to save some bandwidth. ISPs can generally see when you are doing a speedtest and they will give you what you pay for when testing. Try doing a speedtest while downloading. If the download speed in steam increases during the speedtest, then that's probably the issue. I used ookla, fast.com, and google’s internet speed test which gave me the corresponding 160mbps, 250mbps, and 580 mbps. I will bear in mind Speedtest server speed when ISP changes, thanks. For now my selected server works on my current 500mbit line. Ill keep a closer eye on it come swapping to 900mbit time. Any particular reason you run it every 30mins? or just for finer granularity for averages? u/ThiefClashRoyale, thank you so much! I am familiar with command speedtest-cli , however I have 2 WAN links and I do not know how source a specific link. Could anyone fill the gap on the rest of that command? speedtest-cli --source SOURCE (what exactly is the SOURCE? WAN interface or GW IP?) What are some useful ways to test bandwidth from the pfsense? Test your Internet connection bandwidth to locations around the world with this interactive broadband speed test from Ookla I'm having a hard time getting an accurate speed test after my Xfinity mid-tier split was activated. I should see around 2Gbps down and 200Mbps up but I can't find a site that is consistent. Speedtest.net shows 2Gbps but only 100Mbps. My router's test shows 2Gbps and 105Mbps. If I use my 1Gbps laptop I get 300Mbps down and 220Mbps up (it's Ethernet card is junk). My 2.5Gbps workstation is. Learn how to locally set up Claude Code with the new DigitalOcean MCP Server and make it easier to deploy apps with context. The DO regional speedtest pages don’t seem to be available anymore. How can I test speed and latency of DO regions now before creating droplets? /r/speedtest is a community for the purpose of discovering how to make Internet connections faster. As everyone else has already said, internet speedtest servers don't test your internet connection speed as much as they test your PC's connection to a server out on the internet. Because of this, there are many factors that the speedtest servers have to estimate/adjust via an algorithm, therefore it will never be completely accurate.
