When I run Speedtest on my MacBook Pro, it knows my location whether I use the app or run it from AT&T's site. However, my iPhone thinks I'm in a city about 40 miles away, and my iPad Pro thinks I'm in a city (Los Angeles) about 350 miles away. Accordingly, the speeds and pings are slower than they should be. I don't think I'm running a VPN on either, and if I run the Speedtest app on my iPad, it sees a server only 4 miles away. That app on my iPhone looks about 20 miles away. It should be finding my location from my IP address, which should be the same on all three devices since they are on the same wifi network. Does anyone know why my location is not consistent across devices when they are all in the same location?
Do you have Speedtest configured to use Location Services on the devices? For the iPad, it may be using the IP address you have on your device, which is located by your wi-fi at home and where your internet provider's closest base router is for your location. Try turning location services for the app. Go to Settings>Privacy>Location Services>Speedtest and check the settings.
On the iPhone and the iPad, Speedtest is configured to allow Location Services "While Using." I went to the What is My IP site on my Mac, and it says I am in Seattle, though I'm in California. However, this site, , shows my correct location. My iPad shows the same correct location. So does my iPhone. So, this is very strange. If that site can find my correct location, then Speedtest should be able to find it, too.
Okay so I have been trying to run speed tests using the Ookla/Xfinity Speedtest.net for weeks and over a month now with no success. First I thought it was my router and actually there was a problem with my router so I bought a new one. I went from a single band Motorola Router to a Netgear Nighthawk router.
However I am still experiencing the same issue. The Comcast tech wanted to blame my iMac but the speed test doesn't fail when I use the Google speed test. Below is the image from the Ookla speed test.
When I emailed Ookla support they claimed the website works on all of their Macs and they don't know what I'm doing wrong. That it must just be me and they don't know how to help me. The only other thing I can think of is that in the last round of Catalina security updates is when this issue started happening. I'll mention that obviously I'm connected to the internet when I am running these speed tests. This occurs whether I'm connected by way of ethernet or wifi.
That one worked just like a charm. The Speedtest.net app worked also just fine on my iPhone. However it still fails on my iMac. I've searched through the settings. I don't know what could be interfering with that particular website and app honestly. The xfinity techs when they come here are the ones who insist that something must be wrong with my iMac since it can't use that main Speedtest.net website.
I wouldn't trust Xfinity folks having Mac knowledge, and would reject any attempts by them to install, or otherwise tinker with your iMac. Did they run a test from their head-end back to their device at your location to insure there were no Xfinity network issues?
They ran multiple tests and I have had three techs out here over the last two years and I have went through three of their routers before I decided that I'd had enough, and decided to finally buy my own. I really can't wait until they get AT&T Uverse. I used to have their service when I lived in Texas. The service was great and much more reliable. At the moment they only have service in Mass. Comcast has a tight stranglehold on New Hampshire and shows no signs of letting up.
Hi there - sorry you've had a poor experience. I have the Orbi RBR50 mesh and the speed test on the browser admin session and Orbi app (same thing different app presentation layer) is not worth writing home about. It does not allow you to select a specific ISP's server like the Ookla Speedtest app itself on the Mac or iPhone or Apple TV, so defaults to some unknown one and never gives results the same as the iPhone, iPad, Apple TV or Mac version. I get 800+ down, 350+ up on these when hard wired into the RBR50 from my ISP's 900/400 plan but the Orbi app or RBR admin session gives consistently 500/100 results and the ping response has only just started to work in the newest Orbi app version when it used to show 0ms every time.
I logged a feature request last year for the lack of being able to choose a server and for the ping being wrong. Hopefully they are gradually resolving these quirks or have a bug on your model's firmware that isn't showing it, or they have decided to stop licensing Speedtest and have removed the feature from your model's firmware, but you'd think the6 would be able to confirm this.
As mentioned above, we usually recommend NOT using the Orbi's built-in speed test and instead going directly to speedtest.net or using their phone app. We've seen some cases where the Orbi measurement doesn't match what these direct methods report. Also, your measurement will be more correct because it is from your client (phone, PC) instead of just from your Orbi base router.
There are many reasons why your measured speed at home doesn't match the full capabilities of your ISP. This FAQ gives some basic first steps to diagnose and narrow down where the speed degradation is happening: -WiFi-6-AX-and-WiFi-6E-AXE/Community-FAQ-My-Orbi-speeds-are-slo...
Apologies in advance - it seems certain I am duplicating an existing question, but I can't find it. How can I slow down the internet connection speed of my iPhone to test an app? I see many ways to do it for the Xcode simulated (like this Slow down internet for iOS simulator, -to-simulate-slow-internet-connections-on-the-mac) but I need to test in-app purchases, which apparently can only be tested on an actual device. I have searched through the Developer panel in the settings of my iPhone (iOS 8.3) but nothing looks promising there. Thanks for any tips.
Are you experiencing slow internet speeds on your iPhone when you're connected to Wi-Fi? Fortunately, there are many free apps and websites you can use to check the performance of your Wi-Fi network, as well as the speed of your connection to your favorite websites. This wikiHow article will teach you where to find free tools that run simple Wi-Fi speed tests from your iPhone.
Are you an iPhone user? Have you ever checked your iPhone performance? It is always exciting to know the performance of your iPhone simply because it is a premium phone and you paid a lot of money for it. Therefore, knowing if it is performing optimally is important. You can check the same by using iPhone benchmarking tools. For the uninitiated, benchmarking tools test your phone and provide you a score for the same. It tests everything. From basic performance to other details. You can also use benchmarks to know the reasons or issues because of which your iPhone's performance may be suffering and you can further try to improve it.
However, it needs to be noted that the scores or numbers provided are not always reflective of the actual performance but can give you a close analysis. If you want to test your iPhone, then here are some benchmarking tools you can use for the same.

The reason behind the performance throttling makes sense: As older batteries degrade over time, they can't cope with the high demands of the iPhone's processor. To prevent unexpected shutdowns that sometimes occur when processors don't get enough power, the company dialed down the speeds of iPhone processors in units with those batteries.
If your older iPhone's main chip is still running at the speed it should, you'd still do well to take advantage of Apple's battery-replacement program, which has been discounted to $29 from $79 for one year.
I recently purchased the Deco X20 to acommodate a 1gig fiber install. I was referred to the Deco X20 by a friend who has a similar setup. On his app he is able to check the speed of the main Deco remotely via his app when he goes to more, and then internet speed test. My app does not show that feature. Is it hidden somewhere in the newer version of the app?
This is not a relevant response; the "Test Speed" function in the Wifi assitent tests the speed to your mobile phone whereas this question is about the "Test Internet Speed" function in the Deco App, which tests the speed that your internet provider brings in your home (Main Deco to Internet provider Router).
@TP-Link I'm highly disappointed that the speed test function was removed, as it was very informative to be able to verify that actual speed coming to the base router from my ISP. Wireless speed can be tested from any wireless device but the ability to use the Deco App to test the incoming ISP was one of the selling points for me. If that is not a feature that comes back, I will be choosing a different system on my next upgrade. I have the Deco V20 mesh system at three different location and only one location has the ability to check ISP speed. #DISAPPOINTED!
