About

spdMerlin is an internet speedtest and monitoring tool for AsusWRT Merlin with charts for daily, weekly and monthly summaries. It tracks download/upload bandwidth as well as latency, jitter and packet loss.

spdMerlin is free to use under the GNU General Public License version 3 (GPL 3.0).

spdMerlin uses Speedtest CLI and includes the required licenses, which must be accepted on install of spdMerlin. As of spdMerlin v4.4.0 the Asus built-in Ookla speedtest binary is used to run the speedtests.

A swap file is required, you can set one up easily by using amtm, which is built into the router.

This script began as a user-friendly installer for a personal project developed by JGrana
