Great plugin, thank you! I have two feature requests, no rush. Hope this is the right place to put them:

 

1. Ability to export - would like to be able to export all results to a CSV and then do some analysis.

 

2. Ability to put in Speedtest username/password - would let me use their service to keep historical records

 

#1 would be much more valuable than #2 but figured both were worth mentioning.

 

Thanks again!

The results are saved in xml format on your flash drive. You can use /config/plugins/speedtest/speedtest.xml for analysis.

 

I didn't write the underlying speedtest python scripts. I'm not sure if that would be possible and considering that these command line scripts aren't as accurate, I'm not sure you'd want that. You might ask in the github repo linked in the OP.

No trouble here. I use 3.4  at 3am once a day. What version unRAID are you on? There are some network issues with some of the 6.2 rc's. I believe it's fix since the last couple unRAID rc releases. I was getting some failed tests but not anymore.

Interesting.  I just checked my history and I have no results for the last few days.  I ran a manual check and saw this error:

 

Internet bandwidth test started
Retrieving speedtest.net configuration...
Retrieving speedtest.net server list...
Testing from XFINITY...
Invalid server ID

 

Any chance you can detect when an "Invalid server ID" has been specified and switch it back to automatic mode?

Maybe there's a bug. What's the SERVER in speedtest.cfg in the plugin config folder on the flash drive?

I actually don't think it is a bug, I think the server that I was using just isn't available any more.  Unfortunately, I overwrote the "bad" value by choosing a new one from the dropdown, so I can't really tell you what it was before.  This is my current value, which works fine:

SERVER="9383"

Hmm, I tested the web version again after some time but the web version doesn't seem to work that well anymore for some reason, here is an example:

 

Plugin:

5625747959.png

 

Speedtest.net:

5625847230.png

 

Speedtest-linux:

Ping (Lowest): 3.72 ms | Download (Max): 460.86 Mbps | Upload (Max): 512.64 Mbps

 

Speedtest-beta:

Retrieving speedtest.net server list...

Selecting best server based on ping...

Hosted by Tilaa B.V. (Amsterdam) [1.75 km]: 5010.821 ms

Testing download speed...

Download: 0.00 Mbit/s

Testing upload speed...

Upload: 0.00 Mbit/s

 

 

 

It also takes very long for the plugin speedtest to finish  (10-30 minutes)

I would try a different server than the Tilaa B.V. Your ping is 5 sec It also could indicate a problem with your server or network. Where was the speedtest.net results from? Another computer, virtual machine on your unRAID server?

They were all tested with tilaa b.v. and speedtest.net one was tested on a vm on unraid

Just installed the plugin but can't seem to get it to run.  I changed timeout speed to 60 seconds.  When I click Begin Test all i get is "Internet bandwidth test started" and then a done button and results show up with no info.

 

Logs show:

Are you on unRAID 6.1.9?

If so update the plugin.

I'm seeing the same thing on my end.

Check for updates. It is trying to install an old version.
