Feature Request: WAN Speed Test was created by greenwood-it
Hi folks,

I have a regular problem, which I think needs a new feature - but I can't find the right route to request it :-)

When working on a DrayTek router remotely, there is now way of knowing what the WAN speed is - except for WAN1. If you have a fibre router attached to WAN2 or an LTE connection via WAN3 or WAN4, then you are stuffed. I've had instances when I've had to remote onto a Windows PC to run a speedtest, but then found it's only got a 10Mbps LAN connection or is using Wifi :-(

Can we please add a simple WAN speed test to the diagnostics where the PING utility is - unless anyone has a better suggestion?

Chat soon.

On some models if you got a 130 connected you can see the connection speed from the dashboard but from other connections nope.
Yup needs a speedtest from the router to the supplier which would be useful. Virgin do it via sam knows on the hub4.
