The speedtest sensor component uses the Speedtest.net web service to measure network bandwidth performance.
By default, it will run every hour on the hour. The user can change the update frequency in the config by defining the minute, hour, and day for speedtest to run.
+ +To add speedtest.net sensors to your installation, add the following to your configuration.yaml file:
Once per hour, on the hour (default):
+yaml
+sensor:
+ platform: speedtest
+ monitored_conditions:
+ - ping
+ - download
+ - upload
+
More examples:
+ +Every half hour of every day:
+yaml
+sensor:
+ platform: speedtest
+ minute:
+ - 0
+ - 30
+ monitored_conditions:
+ - ping
+ - download
+ - upload
