Test Your Network Or Wi-Fi Speeds With Iperf3 On A Synology NAS

This video covers testing or troubleshoot your network or your Wi-Fi connectivity using iperf3 running on your Synology NAS.

The video topics include:
• What is iperf3.
• Installing iperf3 on a Synology NAS using the SynoCommunity package repository.
• Running iperf3 in server mode on a Synology NAS using SSH.
• Running network throughput tests from a MacOS system running iperf3 as a client to the iperf3 server running on a Synology NAS.
• Wi-Fi standards and the theoretical speeds you can expect.

The community feature is removed for me? Anyone know why or where to go?

So, question, does using Iperf3 in this type of setup have advantages over running an OpenSpeedTest container via Docker to perform similar speed tests?

Will this method also work for a Synology Router?
