Wish: Ability to use a speed test website

[DarkStar]

I would like the ability to enter a speed test web site and Meraki allow you to test using their site. The Meraki Speed test is inaccurate 99% of the time. -DS

I'm all for removal of the Meraki Speedtest function/feature. I find that to be a dead item. So many other outside sources that can give more accurate numbers.

@Welles  Removing the feature if there is no way to fix it I agree. However many times I do not have access to a remote system to do a speed test. I have networks all over the state, so I need the speed test to work from the MX.  OR I could be standing up a new site with no clients and I need to validate the speed to take possession of the circuit. Thanks -DS

This is exactly why I want the speedtest feature. Being able run a speedtest without having to contact a user at the site would be very beneficial for us. Sure we could easily configure a RPi to do something like that, but again... if my home router can do it, why can't my Meraki device?
