Speed test

[Chris]

I know I can ask Alexa whether she is connected to the Internet.
However, will there be a skill that will run a speed test and report by voice?

Perhaps Amazon can do it if they decide to add a speed test feature internally.
As for a 3rd party, the way a skill must be set up makes speed testing an impossibility.

Have you ever run www.speedtest.net from a PC or mobile device?

The speeds you get are dependent upon the device used and whether if it is wired or wireless, and how fast the device can go, as well as the throughput of the router and the band used for wireless; just to name a few. For example, the speeds I get on my wired PC can be as high as 140Mbps  (even though I pay for 100Mbps), but my 3 year old iPhone hits the speed limit at around 85Mbps whereas the older 5 or so year old iPad tops out at around 41Mbps -- all from my home network when using a strong 5G signal.

There are so many variables; so what do you expect to learn from asking Alexa?
