Sadly still only providing download speeds, as Netflix (understandably) doesn't care about upload speeds.

  I like fast.com for friends and family since it's so unambiguous, and then https://speedof.me/ https://speedof.me/ for anything requiring more detail.

Hadn't tried that (fast.com) before. Interesting results: iPhone 6+ very close to router: 110Mbps 2012 MacMini (WiFi 802.11ac) very close to router: 120Mbps 2011 MacMini (ethernet but USB-powered switch in between): 92Mbps With dslreports.com speed test the ethernet is consistently the fastest. I have limited the download speed on the TP-Link Archer C7 router to 100Mbps in an effort to cut down on bufferbloat. Seems to work pretty well on the dslreports test - get A, A, A.

90Mbps on speedtest, 5Mbps on fast.com... BT isn't any better than comcast.
