What time is the automatic network speed test

swatt

In the Google Home app, looking at the WiFi information, we see a nice series of speed test results.  It appears that the system does an automatic speed test every 2 days.  We'd like to know what time of day this test is run by the system?  Haven't been able to find this information anywhere.  Thanks!

Hi swatt,

 

Thanks for reaching out. I'd love to know more about this. Could you share a screenshot of the series of speed test that you're seeing on the Google Home app?

 

Thanks,

Edward

It should be in your Google Home app too if you have Google Nest Wi-Fi.  In the Home app, go under the Wi-Fi icon.  Click the > arrow beside the Network section.  Scroll down a few pages, and you see "Previous speed tests".

We got a speed upgrade last week, so I guess there were some extra readings / misses around that time, but in general, the history of speed tests is every 2 days.

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to jump in again and let you know that a new firmware update is out now to the WiFi routers and points. You won't need to do anything to receive the update and it should have installed automatically for your hardware. There are a variety of performance updates and bug fixes in this release, so I'm hoping this clears up the issues you're seeing here. 

 

The firmware update versions are listed below:

  1. Google Wifi: 14150.376.32
  2. Nest Wifi router: 14150.376.32
  3. Google Wifi (2nd gen): 14150.376.32
  4. Nest Wifi point: 1.56.315675

Please let me know if you are still having any concerns or questions from here, as I would be happy to take a closer look and assist you further.

 

Thanks,
Mel

No one actually answered my question.  What time is the automatic network speed test that Google Nest WiFi does?
