Hello @GameBoerse,

You need to configure your nginx to forward the client IP to the speedtest server through specific headers. I'm using the lib request-ip to detect it. I'm inviting you to read the [https://www.npmjs.com/package/request-ip#how-it-works](How it works) section, indicating which header are read.

You will probably need to use this module: http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_realip_module.html
