Running the Speedtest-tracker all is working fine, except the speedtest is only reaching ~ 200 MB download speed, all this is within the container. When i run the speedtest from my browser on my computer, i get 800-1000 MB download from speedtest. is this a Speedtest CMD line issue or a networking Docker container bridge issue? thanks much

This has come up in a few other issues, never really found a specific reason, but as far as I can tell it's an issue with your docker networking. I've got an instance on a gigabit connection that gets the right results. What os are you using and is your docker networking non-standard?

~~I just noticed that I am having a similar issue. I was using an old version of your app (probably from May 2020, older than this repository?) and was forced to update about a month ago. I just noticed that all my speed tests since then have been around 250mbps when the previous average was closer to 750mbps. There is a hard drop in my graph on the date the I updated. I've even tried manually setting other servers in my area and got the same results. My networking setup has not changed so I'm not sure what to do. Any thoughts would be appreciated.~~

Sorry! I found my issue. Turns out I left a 2nd ethernet cable plugged into the 2nd NIC on my server around the same time. That was somehow affecting the app (even though I tested different networking settings).

Unraid + 2 NICs + speedtest = slower speeds
