DSLReports VS Speed Test by Cloudflare

Bufferbloat. This is a property of your connection. Connect your pc with a cable to your gateway and run test here: http://dslreports.com/speedtest. It will show you grate latter for Bufferbloat. If you get lower than B — you should replace your router with the one that can do SQM. More here https://www.bufferbloat.net/projects/bloat/wiki/What_can_I_do_about_Bufferbloat/. This is unlikely to be a problem on DSL or... Source: almost 2 years ago

Nah, https://dslreports.com/speedtest is where it’s at. Source: about 2 years ago

What is your latency stddev and bufferbloat score at http://dslreports.com/speedtest? Leave it open in the foreground when you run it and don’t do anything else. Source: over 2 years ago

The problem is bad video quality or input lag? Did you check your ping? A good bandwidht don't mean a good ping. Check your ping (bufferbloat) here. And instead of using a vpn, did you try changing your dns first? I recommend the cloudfire one. Source: over 2 years ago

Then don't. :P Run https://dslreports.com/speedtest and look at the bufferbloat score, not the speed. Source: over 2 years ago

> https://speed.cloudflare.com Love this. I'm used to use speedtest.net back in the day, but this is so much better in so many ways and provides so much more data. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

It is not in the same league as Flent, but I really like https://speed.cloudflare.com as an in-browser internet speed test. It's backed by a very densely deployed CDN, it tests both loaded and unloaded latency, and it reports jitter and draws candlestick plots. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

Followup: I just tested OpenWrt 23.05.2 + luci-app-sqm + cake with https://speed.cloudflare.com/ With the limit set to 1 Mbps (1000/1000), my upload latency dropped from 80ms to 25ms, but speed was hard-limited to 1000/1000. With the limit rasied to 1G/1G, cake stopped working and my upload latency returned to 80ms. So I stand by my original comment. You still have to configure the speed limits manually. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

This is helpful, thank you. We weren't expecting anything being routed through a wall, just a longer cable. Speeds right next to the router on my phone were still like 20Mbps. I will try creating the two networks and seeing if that helps, though I still think there is something wrong with how it was set up. I've been using cloudflare (https://speed.cloudflare.com) for the tests which is in Mbps. Source: 5 months ago

What packet loss are you experiencing? Are you on wifi? If you do this test, do you see any packet loss here too? Source: 5 months ago
