The most important part of Linux user interaction is the console. Met here with a wonderful script to check the speed of the Internet connection.
All you need is to go to the project page and perform a couple of simple operations, I did not use the most affordable many options.
curl -Lo speedtest-cli https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sivel/speedtest-cli/master/speedtest.pychmod +x speedtest-cli
or
wget -O speedtest-cli https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sivel/speedtest-cli/master/speedtest.pychmod +x speedtest-cli
With these commands we will download the script and allow its execution. Additional flags to run in the sequel.
Here is the very help, so as not to look for yourself then.
