Want to check the download speed of your VPS/Server but its only Command Line?
Well you can still do it using Speedtest.net over terminal, and this is how.

1.

Code:

wget -O speedtest-cli https://raw.github.com/sivel/speedtest-cli/master/speedtest_cli.py

2.

Code:

chmod +x speedtest-cli

3. Run the speed test.

Code:

./speedtest-cli

And your results will be show shortly! Hope this comes in handy!

You can also do this via python-pip:
