• Fast Network Speed, Slow Internet speeds

  Ah that makes sense then. You could try out https://github.com/sivel/speedtest-cli instead on Ubuntu and see what that comes up with but if it’s still detecting a random, far-away server then you’ll have to use the help options to narrow down your test to your country. Or better yet, try and use the same one that’s fine on your PC 🙏. - Source: Reddit / about 1 year ago

  The Ookla binary is also called speedtest CLI. The one you have labeled as "speedtest-cli" is the one written in Python, also called speedtest-cli. Might be better to label them speedtest-http and speedtest-socket or something? - Source: Reddit / almost 2 years ago
