script to monitor speedtest results

[sick current]

I feel like my ISP always lowers my speed randomly. When I notice, I call them and my speeds return, but then, after a few days, it goes right back to the same low speeds and I have to call them again to fix it. They always fix it, so this seems intentional. I would like to figure out how to view my speed results daily and only get a message if the speed is below what they should be.

I found this quick script on Reddit and was wondering if anyone else has already done something similar to or even better than this before I try to delve into this too deeply.

This other thread is quite close https://discord.com/channels/180528040881815552/1243488268276989983 ... it's actually downloading a 10MB file to check the speed.

Thank you, I will take a look and try to utilize it.

This isn't PowerShell but you might find it helpful, I once used a speedtest tracker running in Docker on a home server to track my internet speed.

the speed tests on https://speed.cloudflare.com/
are really, really nice

it tests not just one 10mb file, but more tests on top of that
