FreeBSD: speed test util

Just saw on youtube how to run the speed test in the terminal. Not sure if it is the same as http://www.speedtest.net/ but it looks very similar.



1. Add the package py-pip, which is a tool for installing and managing Python packages:

# pkg install py27-pip


2. Then install speedtest-cli:

# pip install speedtest-cli


3. That's all. Just run the the speedtest-cli to get the results:

# speedtest-cli
