I was very suprised when I moved from M5 to X50 that this feature is missing. Please give it back.

 Router side speed test is 100% essential tool on any router/app. What on earth were TP-Link thinking when removing it? Will be returning XE75 Pro set.

  @KJ_Cook Pretty sure they didn't want to keep paying Ookla for the Speedtest SDK costs. Funny thing is that Starlink can afford it and so can many other network hardware manufacturers. It is not cheap and from what I understand the pricing starts at $5,000 / year and goes up from there based on volume of requests.

Remote testing of internet speed at the router, rather than another device, is incredibly useful for debugging internet issues.

I bought the x55 assuming that this feature is a standard option and i was wrong. Please allow this to be an option in a future release.

Please add this as a base feature for all Decos 

 

  • Testing of speed between main Deco unit with the ISP modem 
  • Testing of speed between Deco unit and connected devices 

 

 

Disappointed to find that this feature was unavailable upgrading to the XE75pro from the Google Nest setup.

(The speed test features were available on Google Nest)

  @Justin8207 I will add my strong support for getting "Internet Speed Test" back. Just added an X55 as my main deco to get the Wi-Fi 6 speed in that area of my house, and no more  "Internet Speed Test" in the app. Really confused as to why TP-Link would not support this on all of their Deco units. We have a goofy ISP here, and I used the speed test a lot when I just had M9's. Very frustrating.

  @Justin8207 I agree, the feature is massively missing! And it is a disgrace that it has been actually removed. Also considering of moving to some other mesh system.
