You may even see disclaimers like “wireless speeds may vary” because Wi-Fi speeds are always inconsistent no matter what provider you choose-it’s just how Wi-Fi works.įor example, there may be issues with the provider’s service area, like faulty connections somewhere within the neighborhood. Internet providers will state “up to” when advertising maximum speeds because many variables can prevent you from hitting that top speed.

While the speedtest is running your network capacity is fully utilized.Frequent updates should be avoided on bandwidth-capped connections. If run frequently, this integration has the ability to use a considerable amount of data.Running this integration can have negative effects on the system’s performance as it requires a fair amount of memory.The Raspberry Pi 3+ models come with a Gigabit LAN adapter which supports a maximum throughput of 300 Mbit/s. When running on Raspberry Pi the maximum speed is limited by the LAN adapter.# Example configuration.yaml entry automation : - alias : " Internet Speed Glow Connect Great" trigger : - platform : template value_template : " " action : - service : shell_command.red Notes In this section you will find some real-life examples of how to use this component. Please be aware of the potential inconsistencies that this integration may display. This integration uses speedtest-cli to gather network performance data from. Upload sensor: The upload speed (Mbit/s).Download sensor: The download speed (Mbit/s).
Ping sensor: Reaction time in ms of your connection (how fast you get a response after you’ve sent out a request).The following sensors are added by the integration: You can disable polling using system options and use the update_entity service to automate the speed test frequency.
