I am getting 3.2 Mbps via the plugin but using https://fast.com/# I am getting 10Mbps

@irastee Can you provide code samples? Depending upon configuration the speed will be more or less accurate.

Hi, Please find the attached code

Nonissue. When compared with different speed test services this one closely resembles them. There can be a variety of reasons for the speed tests to not always match (algorithm, which server, # of iterations, size of file, etc).

The code provided uses the default configuration which means the internet speed is calculated using a request from GitHub servers. So differences in speed could also be attributed to GitHub server response times.

You can further increase the accuracy of the tests by increasing the number of iterations or using your own file at a different server location.
