I've tried this multiple times, but the download and upload bandwidth is looks off from what's shown in speedtest.net URL.

Discrepancy

  • Download Bandwidth: Library: 9837836, Speedtest.net results URL: 78.70 Mbps
  • Upload Bandwidth: Library: 1834040, Speedtest.net results URL: 14.67 Mbps

Only the ping number matches. Download & upload speeds look very different.

Dividing by 125004 consistently matches the result with what's shown in speedtest.net results URL. I've checked the project README, but I'm not sure why this is the case. Any explanation would be very helpful. Thanks!

I am experiencing the same data mismatch between the url results and the JSON data itself.

Its not a mismatch, the speedtest web will show you the result in Megabits, not Megabtyes. When you convert 9837836 bytes to Mb you will obtain 78.70 Mb
