Discussion appreciated and what's your preferred tester?
thanks
Isn't the business model of most speedtest sites to harvest users data and resell?
A while back I ran a few, all gave different inconsistent results (obviously, due to different times, networks, servers etc), using Chrome, opened the 'Developer Tools', all using slightly different methodology.
A better approach to test the connection is surely to do 'your stuff' (whatever that is, downloading, uploading, VPN, streaming, etc) max out the connection and look at the WAN port utilisation on your router/firewall. This is what is relevant, not a 'guestimate' from a server that you only connect to for a speedtest?
