Suppose a customer is complaining about internet "being slow" intermittently.
Is it feasible to run a script that will do a bandwidth test at a certain interval and then send/store the results to review?

Surely the test starts when the user needs bandwidth and will start complaining…

Yes it is very possible and worth doing. You can use the /netwatch script to run the btest /
ookla speedtest container (
