studiouk Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I would be really good if we can see the internet speed without having to log onto the computer and run speedtest.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Paul Posted October 13, 2016 Administrators Share Posted October 13, 2016 Hi, I've found this script on reddit which reports back the Download speed: $a=Get-Date; Invoke-WebRequest http://client.akamai.com/install/test-objects/10MB.bin|Out-Null; "$((10/((Get-Date)-$a).TotalSeconds)*8) Mbps" You can use this as an automation script and run it on demand from your phone. -Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digbyp Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 For me (Powershell 2 - yes I really must update!!!), this had an error. However, the below works (as a single line) $a=Get-Date; $web = New-Object Net.WebClient; $web.DownloadString("http://client.akamai.com/install/test-objects/10MB.bin") | out-null; $t = "$((10/((Get-Date)-$a).TotalSeconds)*8) Mbps"; $t Cristian Scarafiotti and Paul 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
