You can verify the connection speed usually visiting sites like speedtest.net or fast.com, however there might be cases when you need to test this remotely or in general from the command line of your FreshTomato router.

• Visit speedtest.net and look for the linuc/cli version. At the time this document was written the URL points to: https://www.speedtest.net/apps/cli and the latest versio nis 1.2.0 so this HOWTO refers to such file/version.
• Download the relevant file for your router (ARM device will need armel builds) e.g.

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

• Extract the archive, e.g.

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

• make the file executable

chmod +x ./speedtest

The very first time you will ask to type YES to accept the terms and conditions:

./speedtest
