Ookla Speedtest eats data!

[ahmad0410]

As most of you realise, theres some problem with data connection with M1 and Starhub, and that will lead you to do some speedtests.

So i downloaded Speedtest app by Ookla to test. And I realise I used almost 450mb of data by just doing the tests. Did a total of 10 tests. So thats rougly 45mb per test.

Just to make you guys aware.

How is it supposed to test if there is no downloading and uploading of data?

Yah I know, but didn't expect the app to download that much.

Use this app next time when testing 4G speeds
It starts with a large data size then automatically adjust to lower size as the test progresses so you don't blow 200mb/test
