yandex-speedtest-cli connects to Yandex’s content delivery network (CDN). This network has many servers close to users to give accurate speed data. The tool measures:
- Download speed by timing how fast data downloads from the server.
- Upload speed by timing data sent to the server.
- Ping by measuring the delay in sending and receiving data packets.
All this runs via one command in your terminal window, without clutter or extra screens.
