Unclear selection between testing solutions
Hello,
I noticed that the measured bandwidth has decreased a lot in the last few weeks. I tested with other devices on my network that were not reporting the same values.
After a while, I discovered that the module was using the librespeed CLI instead of the Ookla CLI tool. I removed this tool and the reported value went back to normal.
For some reason, the librespeed-cli tool was reinstalled the next day and the reported values became incorrect again.
See screenshot below.
Selecting the "official" Speedtest CLI has no effect. I was forced to remove the /usr/bin/speedtest
binary to force the use of the official CLI.
❓ Question: Can you explain how to make sure the correct CLI is used? ℹ️ Information: the actual bandwidth is 5 Gbps (Up and Down). As PiHole is installed on a rPi4 with a USB stick, the measured bandwidth is capped at 300Mbps due to hardware limitations. In any case, values oscillating around 150Mbps are not correct values.
