A Node.js CLI tool that tests internet connection speed and ping using speedtest.net. It outputs download/upload speed and ping, with JSON and verbose output options.

Use cases

  • test internet connection speed from the terminal
  • measure ping and bandwidth via speedtest.net
  • get internet speed results as JSON for scripting
  • check download speed in MBps
  • run network speed checks in CI or scripts

When to choose

  • you want a quick terminal-based speed test without a browser
  • you need machine-readable JSON speed results for automation
  • you prefer speedtest.net servers for measurements

When to avoid

  • you need a GUI or detailed diagnostics of your network
  • you want to test against fast.com instead
  • you need continuous bandwidth monitoring rather than one-off tests
