    Re: Speedtest CLI. Run speedtest on pfSense box
    As the non official verion of the speedtest cli has the limitation of only selecting and testing on 10 servers that are in most cases not the best for your location. This can result to poor test results. I made a new widget and install/uninstall instruction for using the official speedtest.net cli. Thanks for the original author for the inspiration to build this new version.

      [UPDATE]
      Let’s note Speedtest are ONE-STREAM app, so if someone need to test multi-WAN egress connection bandwidth, better to use iperf3 (now in v3.1)

      Thank You so much!

      P.S.
      Could You be so please to make Settings “Start on Dashboard loading” checkbox to REDUCE DASHBOARD WHOLE LOADING time: especially when a lot of other widget exist, like checking updates, fw/IDS/IPS logs, RSS, BSD system parameters, etc…
