librespeed reports impossible server locations. Here is the output of automated once-per-night librespeed runs:
Virginia, United States, OVH 9/2/2023 3:01 AM 92.45 42.74 1.62 18
Virginia, United States, OVH 9/1/2023 3:01 AM 92.49 42.75 0.38 17
Frankfurt, Germany (Clouvider) 8/31/2023 3:01 AM 96.56 42.52 0.25 17.64
Frankfurt, Germany (Clouvider) 8/30/2023 7:21 PM 92.96 42.61 0.14 19
Note how the upper two pretend to be located in Virgina over the atlantic ocean, since I am located in the middle of Germany, getting an RTT of 18ms to Virginia in the US is not believable… The distance is ~ 6.590 Km, so with 10006590000/300000000 = 22 ms one way delay or 44ms RTT , assuming we could get a direct evacuated path between both locations in actual fiber more like 10006590000/(0.67*300000000) = 33 ms OWD or 66ms RTT.
Server
This is using automatically selected servers the client auto selects.
Client
This is under turris OS 6 (a derivative of OpenWrt 21).
Server 78's name implies a location in the US, but its RTT is not consistent with that claim.
Expected behaviour
The Virgina server should have reported a "Ping" in line with a cross-atlantic network path, so likely >> 100ms, as can be seen for the Atlanta and New York servers:
