speedtest

I have small suggestion. Could @RMerlin please look into moving "Internet speed" tab from very unintuitive "Adaptive QoS" (why ASUS thought that putting it there in a first place is a good idea?) section to the "Network tools" section where it rightfully belongs?

For the past two days I've noted that when checking the internet speed, either via the Asus app on my phone or on via router login on my PC. it now only shows servers in Adelaide. For years Perth servers have been shown. As the distance from Perth to Adelaide is nearly 2,700km ping results are...

On my RT-AX86U Pro (3004.388.7), testing my internet speed reveals a lower rate compared to when I test on my mobile phone through the Ookla Speedtest App while sitting near the router. My internet provider offers 1000 Mbit/s download and 50 Mbit/s upload speeds. I have repeated the Tests few...

Just purchased the RT-AX86U and using ASUS firmware 3.0.0.4.388_22525-gd35b8fe. With adaptive QoS turned off (turned on will only get 1.5G/950) SETUP: [Bell Fibe 3.0 Gbps, with 10G port] ---- Cat 6e, (tested with usb 2.5G NIC, got ~2.5G) ---- RT-AX86U (with 2.5G WAN port). Using the ASUS...

Hi. I am getting very different Speedtest results form my computer and from the Asus router. Here's what I get from the router (Version: speedtest 1.1.1.28) Michele@RT-AC88U-72D8:/jffs/addons/spdmerlin.d/ookla# ./speedtest Do you accept the license? [type YES to accept]: YES License...

I noticed in the latest build 388.1 on AX86U the option to select vpn port for speed test no longer exists, was this a miss? Now I can only test speed via the WAN port. Any thoughts or knowledge of this change? Thanks !

@Jack Yaz: I noticed that sometimes when the data usage for a download or upload exceeds 1 GB then the columns "Download Data (MB)" and "Upload Data (MB)" contain e.g. 1.0 instead of 1024. For example a speed test outputs: Bandwidth - Download: 859.44 Mbps (data used: 1.0 GB ) - Upload: 939.96...

I just noticed that the QoS page of my new AX88U has a speed test, don't think my old AC87U had this. Anyway I thought this would be the best speed test as it's on the router, but it's showing almost half my connection speed. Anyway my FTTP connection is sold as 900/100 and via command line...

Hi all, Running RT-AC86U with Merliln 386.2_6. It is connected to a FiOS ONT over a gigabit ethernet port for a 500/500 connection. When I run spdMerlin or the included Ookla speedtest from the router (in Adpt QoS -> Internet Speed), I consistently end up with a max 350 mbps download and only a...

Hi, Netgear routers come with an integrated speedtest. It is meant originally to be used when setting up QoS, but is helpful to test the bandwidth speed of the WAN connection. It is a custom version of the well known ookla speedtest. It can be run from router web interface, NG phone or tablet...

Hi guys, I just discovered that the binary version of Speedtest is now available. I successfully installed the arm version on my Asus Merlin: ookla repository: https://ookla.bintray.com/download/ or https://bintray.com/ookla/download/speedtest-cli/1.0.0#files The binary version for Asus...

Hi, Can you implement simple plugin for web page to test speed of internet connection? When I have connection problem with my provider they want to connect my notebook to their router and test speed connection. I found example for ubuntu...

Hey all, So I just got AT&T fiber internet installed today, 300 mbps up and down. I set the gateway up for IP passthrough, so I could use my TP-Link Archer C5 (with OpenWRT) instead of the unit AT&T provided. My wireless throughput over the LAN averages between 45-50 MB/s (360-400 mbps)...

Is there a script similar to this one that can be run on the router? sivel/speedtest-cli: Command line interface for testing internet bandwidth using speedtest.net https://github.com/sivel/speedtest-cli That's a python script. If there is not a script specific to an Asus router, has anyone...

Hi, is there any builtin speed testing tool in Merlin? I need strong evidences in my struggle with ISP. Or my only choice is Entware and iperf?

Updated with solution at bottom of this post. I am re-asking this question in the Merlin forum as I did not have the correct forum category the first time...original post here I recently switched to CenturyLink 1gbps service and I'm not seeing the full speeds for download. I get 150-250mbps...

Hi, in advance I should say I'm no expert so if I mix up some terms or say something which doesn't make sense, bare with me. I will try and explain my issue as thoroughly as possible. I am on a FTTH 200/100 mbps connection. I purchased this router(RT-AC68U) a few months ago to replace...

Hi, Thnx for Merlin. Like it so far, installed it 2 days agi on my RT-AC68U . However I do have a question. On the networkanalysis tab I can do a ping to several predefined servers. Why not add the server "other" to this and add a testfield which can be used to fill in any server or a local IP...
