General

The Bug

I have installed MySpeed in accordance with the Proxmox VE Helper Scripts here: https://tteck.github.io/Proxmox/

It runs in a Proxmox LXC container, connected to a 2.5gbps switch via 1gbps NIC and a CAT6 UTP cable.

MySpeed suggests that I average ~400mbps down and ~100mbps up while speedtest.net suggests I am getting more than my ISPs allotted 1000mbps down AND up. what could cause this discrepancy? MySpeed-MySpeedServer Speedtest-MySpeedServer These two test were performed consecutively and not cherry picked for any specific result.

What device are you using to access the page?

In the browser

Which operating system is your MySpeed instance running on?

Linux

It appears that changing my provider from cloudfare to OOKLA corrects the discrepancy and provides realistic results. Unsure why cloudfare is so bad but this may work for you if you are experiencing this problem
