Web

We provide a web-based speedtest which can be used on almost every device without a hassle. You can choose from a list of servers, which are all provided by WOBCOM GmbH in the different data center locations.

speedtest.net

We're operating a speedtest.net server. You can use it by eventually selecting it at speedtest.net or using the speedtest.net cli client.

  • Old Speedtest.net CLI client: speedtest --server 53128
  • New Speedtest.net CLI client: speedtest -o speedtest.wobcom.de

Hint: speedtest.net have changed their API design, they don't return the full list of servers anymore. Therefore it's possible that you can't find the server.

You can use the -4/-6 flags to enforce using IPv4/IPv6. When testing high bandwidths consider using the -P # option to use multiple streams.

HTTP(S) download test files

To supply test downloads we developed the tool sparsesrv, A high performance sparse file webserver written in Rust. Compression has been disabled in the webserver. Could be slower than iPerf3 or speedtest-cli.
