If I visit speedtest.net and click on "Go", I get 356Mbps download, and 19Mbps
upload with multiconnection via Starlink and a server in Paris. But when I load
Debian 12 package speedtest-cli I get
rprice@maria ~ speedtest
Retrieving speedtest.net configuration...
Testing from Starlink (216.128.23.xxx)...
Retrieving speedtest.net server list...
Selecting best server based on ping...
ERROR: Unable to connect to servers to test latency.
I get this same error result all day and from Debian 11 and 12. Has anyone got
speedtest-cli to work?
This looks like bug #1024830.
westk@westkent:~$ speedtest
Download: 496.67 Mbit/s
VERSION_CODENAME=trixie

So it looks as if this will be fixed in Debian 13. Roger

What leads you to that conclusion?
My reading of the bug report I referenced is that the issue is that the server is rejecting connections because it's receiving too many
connections too fast from the same IP address.

Then why would speedtest work correctly from a browser connected to
the speedtest.net site, but not from speedtest-cli coming from the
same IP ? My Starlink IP does vary, possibly every 4 minutes, but
that doesn't explain the persistent difference in behaviour between
the site and the command line. Roger

Did you try the --secure option?

My previous guess that the bug would be fixed in Debian 13 looks to be wrong. >The real problem seems to be that Ookla doesn┤t like Starlink, at least those >Starlink users who land in Paris.
