Inaccurate browser testing results vs CLI results #297

Closed linuxjunky closed 4 years ago

linuxjunky commented 4 years ago

Description

When testing against this server I get different results using different browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Edge. Upload typically shows 0.00Mbps. Using the CLI binary from the same windows client, I get consistent accurate results.

Server

Speedtest server set up on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS following the video guide on the GIT page.

Client

Windows 10 Pro. Chrome Firefox M$ Edge CLI Client - (librespeed-cli_1.0.4_windows_amd64) with local servers.json file

Steps to reproduce

Browse to the server. Click Start Using cli: librespeed-cli.exe --local-json public.json Browser test results are inaccurate, varying greatly. Either Download or Upload shows 0.00Mbps depending on which browser you use. CLI test results are consistent, clightly lower than actual bandwidth available.

Expected behaviour

Browser should report consistent results (somewhat) on par with the cli-based testing binary.
