Thanks for all your work on this module!

I wanted to check to see if the method to measure the internet speed might be able to be changed? looking at the code it appears you are using the ookla speedtest.net website to measure speed. When I run the module I usually get between 200 and 200 mbps.

I have a 1gb internet connection.

Ookla also provides a downloadable command line speedtest. When I download that and install it to the same Pi where I am running this module the command line test shows an internet speed of around 800mbps, which matches what I see on many other devices.

I am wondering what would need to be changed to use the command line test to feed the info?
