Some constructive feedback - without me know where your server is, this test feels pointless. It's just showing my the speed between my computer and your server which could be anywhere in the world. Also, the chart labels say "MBS" but the details below say "Mbps".

If I want a simple test, I'll usually use fast.com because I know that Netflix have a presence here in NZ and the "more info" link shows where the servers are.

But if I need something more technically oriented, I'll use speed.cloudflare.com.

Both of those tests show my speed significantly higher than what yours is showing.

I'm going to work on telemetry and a snippet to show the server, ping, and a few more things keeping it minimal. I also fixed the typo. Thanks for the feedback
I don't think this server has enough bandwidth to accurately measure download speed. It told me my speed was 90.59 MB/s, but the test at fast.com gave me a more plausible 310 MB/s and speedtest.net gave me 325 MB/s. So it seems to be measuring its own maximum speed rather than mine. (The upload speed it gave me, 12 MB/s, agreed with fast.com.)
I will spend some time setting up Telemetry and a few servers to try and get one closer to you. But I don't think I'm getting throttled, but I'll check as well.
You may be getting throttled, since both times I tried, the speed started out faster and then quickly slowed down.
Says 1.6Gb/s here but fast.com says 4.0Gb/s
Wow. Where are you?
Very nice UI! Can I make some suggestions?

- Latency, traceroute (or server location), ingress network or any other 'advanced' stats would be nice. Maybe hidden in an accordian? - If it's open source, a github like is probably a good idea - A share button is also a good idea. A simple link to a results page or even just a generated image would probably be sufficient.

Where are you hosting this? Doesn't this slam your cost of bandwidth/fair use for unlimited?

Thanks for sharing, very cool!

I'll add some more advanced stats over the coming days and telemetry.
Resizing box, got hugged. One sec.
Seems to be almost done resizing

Working well for me. Looks good on mobile. Thanks for not putting a bunch of useless crap all over the screen like a lot of these kinds of sites do.
Are you residing in Malaysia? The only way to buy a .my domain is if you own a MyKad (national id) or a locally registered business.
> The only way to buy a .my domain

Not the only way, there's registrars who offer "trustee" services and can register it on your behalf

I am pleased to see that it supports IPv6. Even today, plenty of new services are lacking.
The upload seemed to keep going for 5-10 seconds after the chart was fully populated. Other than that, seems pretty good (and showed similar results to testmy.net).
Thnx. Fixed the issue so it ends when the plotting ends.
Would be interesting to see the latency graphed at the same time.
I like this idea, but I'll have to think about it.
Is this privacy based?
It stores nothing as its just a blob of data, it uses clicky which is gdrp compliant for visitor tracking, why by default anynomizes and zero's out the ips.
366/12 here. Dallas
That upload speed is brutal. Unfortunately, slow upload will impact your downloading experience as well, if the gap is wide enough.
Um ... my upload speed shows as 0.00 Mbps. Is it broken?
400 (four hundred)mbps down in remote NC US with fiber.
Why use this instead of one of the various other speed tests? Off the top of my head:

1. Ookla SpeedTest https://www.speedtest.net

2. Netflix Fast https://fast.com

3. Cloudflare Speed Test (my personal favorite) https://speed.cloudflare.com

"Why?" Sometimes, the most unentertaining answer is the correct one--which is just junior developers creating toy apps to boost their resumes in a tough hiring market. It's the same reason the npm ecosystem is flooded with so many garbage packages.
Shouldn't of put the "made by" on it, I took it down since. Was just trying to appease another commenter who asked for attribution. Not sure what makes some one a junior developer.
why are there multiple versions of anything? people can choose the one they like, and all are different somehow.

I personally prefer fast.com because it's quick to type in and typically I'm only looking for download speed, but the real-time graph on this one here is pretty cool

There are ISPs out there that give priority and optimized the speed to Ookla Speedtest whenever the browsers connected to it. This causes skewed results believing that we are getting the speed we paid for when it is not in reality. In a way, it would do "unlimited speed" the maximum it can go just for this test.

Netflix Fast are connected to multiple Netflix CDNs throughout regions. They will get a realistic speed meter and difficult for ISPs to fake it.

Fast can also measure some more connection metadata if you click "show more info". A bit annoying it requires the extra step to start measuring ping and upload speed, but it is there.
I had never seen cloudflares. And why not make one? I do enjoy programing after all.
Another speed test site is https://testmy.net

The site claims superior accuracy (which I can't confirm but probably someone here can evaluate one way or the other). The site offers a number of test options and other amenities.

I'll have to try these other sites to see how they compare.

Edit: Just tried testmy.net vs. internetspeed.my:

    testmy.net:       download 533.5 Mbps upload 17 Mbps
    internetspeed.my: download 549.1      upload 19.2
The results are surprisingly similar.
Alternative: use the iperf CLI tool with one of the servers listed on https://github.com/R0GGER/public-iperf3-servers .

I prefer this, since I already use iperf to measure speed between hosts I manage.

Interesting, but as others have commented, why? Is this something that you plan to turn into a product or is this just for fun?

Compared with other tools this runs for much longer, which made me question if it was ever going to stop the download test and run the upload. After stopping it twice I finally let it run long enough to see the upload too. The numbers agree with Ookla as far as I can tell.

Having the X axis move is a bit disturbing and confusing since it doesn't give a sense of when the test might finish. The Y axis is not great for a cable connection like mine where it's ~550Mbps down and only 12 up. The upload graph is almost flat and it's hard to see any variation.

Doesn’t load for me… hug of death? Or is it a joke I missed?
Congratulations on getting a hug of death!
Always felt too cautious to buy a .my domain (Myanmar) but they do make nice domain hacks
.my is Malaysia. It's .mm for Myanmar.
what is this? No description. No Github. Im all for test your internet speed like libre speed, where I can actually test my local wifi. How is this front page?
