====== Run a Speedtest from the Command Line Interface ======

Typically, you test connection speed by visiting sites like speedtest.net or fast.com. However, situations may arise when you need to test the FreshTomato device remotely or you just want to test from the command line instead of via the Web interface.

===== Downloading speedtest cli =====

  * Visit speedtest.net and look for the Linux/cli version. At the time this was written, the URL was: [[https://www.speedtest.net/apps/cli]] 
  * The latest version was 1.2.0. Therefore, this HOWTO refers to that version.
  * Download the relevant file for your router (ARM device will need **armel** builds).

For example, at a command line, download the file:

 \\ ''cd /mnt/USB wget ookla-speedtest-1.2.0-linux-armel.tgz''

 \\

 Then, extract the archive:

''tar zxvf ookla-speedtest-1.2.0-linux-armel.tgz''

 \\

Now, make the file executable:

''chmod +x ./speedtest''

 \\ \\

===== Executing the test =====

 \\

The very first time you run speedtest, it will prompt you to confirm (type YES) that you accept the Terms and Conditions:

 \\

<code ->
./speedtest
