Feature request: Web based speed test server

Wanna be destructive?. Help put these speedtest scammers out of business!

There should be a simple web page interface for anyone to connect to any mik and do a speed test from
themselves to that mik. Intensely useful for customers to check their own local loops back to our core router.

Rather not. It can be simply misused and customer takes care about the real Internet speed, not about your local network throughput.

Not to mention that any btest on the router itself is not indicative of anything useful.

Routers are made to mainly forward traffic not generate traffic.

This sounds like something you set up as a service for your clients on a server. There are many solutions available.

Could you please post pointers to a solution or many solutions that are available for free local speedtest servers

Thanks Homer

I’ve deployed this years ago. You can now use ARM board to do this in a very low cost.

Interesting!
