I am running the latest docker container. Results come in at right around 150 Mbps download and 35 Mpbs upload. The upload speed is correct, but the download speed should be closer to 800 Mbps.

Running a test via a browser at https://www.spectrum.com/internet/speedtest-only gets about 800 Mbps hitting a server in Olivette, MO.

I have another Windows VM on the same host where the docker container is running. When I do the same speed test in a browser from that VM, I get close to 800 Mbps so I do not think it is a Hyper-V issues.

If I run the speedtest-cli locally on my machine, it gets 800 Mbps download. Guessing this must be a limitation with Docker.

@samcro1967 , I'm seeing the same thing. Have Fios with Gigabit down/up, but seeing roughly 350-400 down/up in the docker. Shame.
