I'd like to run a CLI broadband speed tester on my CentOS server. I downloaded "tespeed" from http://sourceforge.net/projects/tespeed/. This ran fine under Fedora-19, but failed under CentOS with the message "# reject large message", although from a quick look at the source it did not seem to be using a large test-file.
Does anyone know of an alternative CLI speed-tester for CentOS? Or how to get this one to work under CentOS?

Would you be able to simply wget a file from the Internet, or do you need more detail? Something like http://www.cloudtestfiles.net/ might work.

There is https://github.com/sivel/speedtest-cli which uses the servers from speedtest.net
