Hey folks. Share your Pi Speedtests! Let's see who has the Pi with the fastest internet connection

Remember to remove your public IP address!

Run this command from a terminal Source here! It's 100% safe.

Code: Select all

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sivel/speedtest-cli/master/speedtest.py | python -

Home Connection (100/100 connection)

Code: Select all

Retrieving speedtest.net configuration...
Testing from ******** (130.***.***.5)...
Retrieving speedtest.net server list...
Selecting best server based on ping...
Hosted by ******** [68.38 km]: 20.971 ms
Testing download speed...........................................................
Download: 82.20 Mbit/s

With my VPN connected via Wireguard:

Code: Select all

Retrieving speedtest.net configuration...
Testing from ******** (185.***.***.160)...
Retrieving speedtest.net server list...
Selecting best server based on ping...
Hosted by ******** [0.23 km]: 23.456 ms
Testing download speed..................................................................
Download: 82.09 Mbit/s
Testing upload speed.....................................................................
Upload: 82.16 Mbit/s

This is why I love Wireguard. Almost no loss of speed when using it what-so-ever. I'll edit this post later with tests using openvpn to show the difference. In the past openvpn has been much slower.

Nice idea, especially to compare VPN speeds.

Note (for others) that Python is required to run this script. It is Python 3 compatible, which I would then recommend:
apt install python3
