A command line client for testing the speed and performance of your internet connection.
Download:

Then txz2xzm and activate the module

The "speedtest" application and the "speedtest.md" text file are in the root directory

or, if you want to do it a bit properly:
as root in the directory with the downloaded archive:

Code: Select all

mkdir -p mod/usr/{doc,bin}
tar xvf ookla-speedtest-1.0.0-x86_64-linux.tgz
mv speedtest mod/usr/bin
mv speedtest.5 speedtest.md mod/usr/doc
dir2xzm mod ookla-speedtest-1.0.0-x86_64-linux.xzm
or the same using your filemanager, and archiver.

mv speedtest.5 speedtest.md mod/usr/doc
dir2xzm mod ookla-speedtest-1.0.0-x86_64-linux.xzm
Since speedtest.5 is a man page, I propose this:

Code: Select all

mkdir -p mod/usr/{doc,bin} mod/usr/share/man/man5/
tar xvf ookla-speedtest-1.1.1-linux-x86_64.tgz
mv speedtest mod/usr/bin
mv speedtest.5 mod/usr/share/man/man5/
mv speedtest.md mod/usr/doc
dir2xzm mod ookla-speedtest-1.1.1-linux-x86_64.xzm
or whatever version it is when you download it.
In ncmprhnsbl's case it was ookla-speedtest-1.0.0-x86_64-linux - in my case it was ookla-speedtest-1.1.1-linux-x86_64 :)
Cheers!
Yours Rava

After performing the test…

Code: Select all

Packet Loss:     7.5%
That sounds like a high loss rate. Or am I mistaken and 7.5% is average?
Cheers!
Yours Rava
