speedtest.co.za vs speedtest.net

[heinef]

I see speedtest.net reports better speed and latency than speedtest.co.za. Normally the difference isn't very big but I see with the free proton vpn the difference is huge. Who should I believe? I think speedtest.co.za is the mybroadband site?

Thanks

I could be wrong here but a factor could be when using speedtest.net you actually performing tests to multiple hosts, as you can see by the arrow its Interworks + 3 other servers where speedtest.co.za is only 1 host if i recall all of them are in the same hosting environment. On my line and ISP i personally get more or less the exact same result on both.

Speedtest.net is prioritized by your ISP Don't overthink it
