Hi,

how does one truly test internet speeds provided by your provider.


I am going to go back to your original question and ask, for what purpose ?


Speed test sits give different results that one provided by the provider.


Could well be. Speed tests for one purpose (say, TCP web) may be largely irrelevant for other purposes (say, UDP video).

If it really matters - i.e., if you have an application or use case or customer where speed is crucial, then test it using that
application, or find a test that mimics that application.

If you care about interpreting your tests, you might start here
