Open source alternatives to Speedtest.net
Speedtest.net measures your connection against Ookla's servers, once, when you ask. The four tools here are all MIT-licensed and all ship Docker images, but they solve two different problems. If you want a test page on your own server, OpenSpeedTest is a plain HTML5 test written in vanilla JavaScript that any static web server can host, so it needs very little upkeep. MyIP is a wider toolbox on one page: speed, ping and MTR tests, IP geolocation, and DNS leak and WebRTC checks. If you want to know whether your provider delivers the speed you pay for, Speedtest Tracker monitors performance and uptime on a schedule, and MySpeed records your results over a retention period you set. Pick a tracker for evidence over weeks, and a test page for checking a home or office network. The trade-off of a self-hosted test page is that it measures the link between a device and your own server, not your line to the wider internet.

How to choose a Speedtest.net alternative
- Want the project most likely to keep shipping? Start with MyIP: health 96/100 and 535 commits in the last 90 days.
- Building it into a commercial product? MyIP is MIT, a permissive licence, so changes you ship stay yours.
- Want the quickest install? Every measured option ships a Docker image, so a single compose file is the whole deployment.
- The score measures maintenance, not features: shortlist two and try them with your own data before you migrate.
