Mine doesn't work either; AT&T Fiber router in IP Passthrough mode. @mstutz2319 is your att gateway box a bgw-210 or 5268ac? ATT gateways are terrible with their DMZ+/IP Passthrough. For the 5+ years I had ATT fiber(just moved to an area with Google fiber) I used the dumb switch bypass to take it out of the equation and I highly, HIGHLY recommend it. All you need it a gigabit Ethernet switch and it should only take 5-10 minutes.

The speeds are nowhere near what I pay for, but it works. It still does not work on my R3 though. Why not use speedtest.net? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've known about the dumb switch bypass, and I used to use it, but power outages just make it a pain. Maybe I can invest in a UPS system and keep my network equipment alive during power outages. Lol. Anyway, the measurement labs speed test works fine from my PC, so why wouldn't it work fine from my R3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The site will work yes, it'll use a different server than what is provided for API purposes. Measurementlabs is cheaper than using ookla which is quite expensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have all the technical details on it but from what I know have two addresses on the router for it, the main one and then a backup, if either of those aren't working for whatever reason, e.g. under heavy load, down for maintenance or they simply stop using that server etc then the feature wouldn't work.

Right. So if I look in the R3's log, will it say what happened? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I ran another speed test, grabbed the log, and then the router crashed. Lol. Or at least I cannot access the web GUI anymore, but I still have an internet connection.

I didn't attempt multiple tests in a row, but I have yet to complete a successful test. These lines in the log seem related to the speed test. Not sure though.

I don't have any ETAs on specific fixes, we'll do what we can to boost the speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys could use the CMD line install, https://opensource.com/article/20/1/internet-speed-tests. Few options to do it but it would certainly help with the issues you guys are facing with it and ping optimizer. Idk how you would tie in latency for optimizer to see but code isn't my specialty lol. Making a command line backend for it to run or if the router is linux based, you can add in the iPerf capability for testing speed, it would even give the router the ability to test speed between router and device to find potential bad cables, switches or just device NIC bottlenecks.

I suspect we'd get into a lot of trouble for bypassing their enterprise plans by using their service commercially! iPerf would be good for LAN but not for internet speeds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, openwrt has the package code already setup as a service, you just have to download the pkg and it self installs running a script. So technically, you're not bypassing anything, you're just making the option available and then the end user is adding it to their router that they own. This would avoid litigation issues and you could "encourage" it being used to help with accurate speed testing and optimization of latency. I apologize, iPerf is a LAN tool, I used to run it alongside something else to get WAN added on. I haven't had much sleep since I finished moving late this weekend, speaking of, I will test that router real quick tonight so we can get moving on a swap if it doesn't work.

You don't buy OpenWRT though so it's a little different, we will have made that option available, I don't think you could feasibly say well we didn't expect anyone to use it for example. Anyway, I think we'd want to keep everything above board, I have already spoken to the team about looking into other services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
