I can understand cutting back the minimum time, but making the minimum 12 hours makes the feature almost pointless. I mean 12 hrs doesn't give ANY indication about "speed", at best it is an occasional heartbeat. To set up a test server, you need the following: For creating your test endpoint, just run the installer on your server. This subreddit is here to provide unofficial technical support to people who use or want to dive into the world of Ubiquiti products. Does it work on demand, or just auto? Lately I’ve been having drops for up to 20-30 seconds. I don’t even know what I should buy anymore while it doesn’t seem they are fixing bugs or adding functionality. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts.
Service providers also benefit from brand visibility, as the provider name is always visible in the test window and WiFiman app. Actually, Ive found most speed tests to be iffy for anything over a 250mbps line (I have gigabit), The speed test in UniFi consistently gives me +-200 down.
Creation of our own speed test network allows Ubiquiti to continue leading in the development of innovative new products covering private and public networks.
The auto seems to work, but the metrics are a lot slower than I would expect. Gave me a good indication of experience directly tied to my use case. WiFiman app provides Speedtest and troubleshooting information. I am not sure it is perfect by any means, but it works pretty damn reliably for my small home network. This is an unofficial community-led place to discuss all of Ubiquiti's products, such as the EdgeRouter, UniFi, AirFiber, etc. I found it I set it to auto speed test every x hours then it will be successful by itself. Mine is always a little flaky, doesn’t run on demand always. This CLI is a binary that uses the Ookla Speedtest engine and their 10,000 server host network. Why is that?
Press J to jump to the feed. My test in unifi gives me more in line with +-1Gbps both up and down. If you see people spreading misinformation, trying to mislead others, or other inappropriate behavior, please report it! UniFi's products are designed and tested to ensure they can provide for this typical use for many clients simultaneously. Took me 3 months to figure out why I was busting my data all of a sudden. Ubiquiti Speed Test comprises a network of test servers and built-in speed test capabilities. And the first troubleshooting tool I had is utterly useless. Try the official Ookla Speedtest CLI: https://www.speedtest.net/apps/cli. The algorithm may use several parallel endpoints for the best measurement accuracy. i believe i cant use the US results the little UBNT-Dungeon will deliver to me im on a 500/500 and other sites i got a 1000/1000 and it rarely hit over 200 in the unifi speedtest. By hosting their own test server, service providers will be better able to troubleshoot customers’ connectivity issues. I was already confused with unifi, edge, air all having very very similar products. Ubiquiti Speedtest provides throughput and latency data. I have a speed test running on the DS, but I'd really like to get speed directly between the USG and the ISP. Cookies help us deliver our Services. The Ubiquiti WiFiman app includes embedded speed test capabilities. Such information may be shared with third parties, such as your Internet provider to help them create a faster or better Internet. It was eating up 700GB/month of my 1TB cap. For rural and limited internet infrastructure areas, slower connections may be acceptable. Is running a speed test that intensive of an activity? I also find this frustrating.
Local and cloud access. The USG does not have the capacity to perform a speed test it can only generate around 300 Mbps. Sigh. If a UniFi Access Point fails to provide the speed that it is capable of, this is most often a result of environmental limitations or other bottlenecks in the deployment. If you haven’t already been descriptive in your post, please take the time to edit it and add as many useful details as you can. The Docker image is updated automatically after setup. I may be an outlier here, but on a UDM-Pro's newer controller/OS, the speed test seems to be done against proper local/nearby targets and actually yields accurate results. I find running them from a wired device on the network with Speedtest to be more reliable anyway. Reports include uplink/downlink throughput and latency. The Python one you’ve used in the past wasn’t official and UniFi ended up making their own with a smaller sever network, hence the lower accuracy. I'll have to disagree.
