Liliumbonafide Posted June 18, 2022 Posted June 18, 2022 Whenever I try to use connection benchmark it is no-where even close to my speeds, this is what it shows vs speedtest.net, vs isp speed test so I'm absolutely stumped at what is happening... please help
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 18, 2022 Administrators Posted June 18, 2022 It's not busted but it does use a different speed test provider/servers so depending on your location and route to those servers the speeds may differ but it doesn't mean those are the speeds you're getting, so if speedtest.net shows more accurately then you can go with that
Liliumbonafide Posted June 18, 2022 Author Posted June 18, 2022 Okay thank you, also do you know why my ISP modem would show my full speeds in a speed test but speed test.net wouldn't, would I set the R2 to the speed test speeds or the ISP speed test
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 18, 2022 Administrators Posted June 18, 2022 If it's a pure modem then it's not routing anything so speeds would be roughly 50Mbps higher. Other than that they are very likely testing your speed to one of their servers which would be closer and better routed so it would always appear to be higher but connecting to anywhere else will always take longer so that is why it would differ. If your speedtest.net speeds are consistently at the same kind of values I would use those so QoS can be more accurate.
