Enable users to choose single or multi-connection test
Description
It would be useful if the user interface allowed a user to choose whether to have a single or multi-connection test themselves.
- Single connection: good indicator of expected performance for a single TCP session. This reflects how applications really perform.
- Multi connection: good indicator of overall available bandwidth between client and server
Why it should be implemented
We use Librespeed on our WAN so that we can support users without worrying about iperf etc. Sometimes a single-connection test is more useful because it provides an indicator of throughput to expect from most applications for a given latency.
Optional: screenshots
Speedtest.net have a good example, it is just a toggle switch visible to all users
