Any SpeedTest channel replacement out there?

I just noticed today that the SpeedTest channel doesn't work anymore.

Just wondering, if there's another Roku channel available (public or private) that can test the speed of my Roku the way SpeedTest did?

You can use the one Netflix has in it's settings.Click Settings,get help,check your network.Isn't the most accurate cause on the Roku4 wireless I get 22 with a 100/10 internet speed.On the 2nd generation Fire TV wireless I get the full 100.Both are 30 feet away from the router with a direct line of view.Go figure.
I used to have a life before Roku!

vudu's speed test has been removed.

Speed test channel , long gone. A favorite.  Even if the speed test results were not very accurate, the channel gave a quick look, one click away,  if one was still connected to the internet and a good idea of the speed.

nothing is FREE on Roku any longer and of course FREE movies is not free if you watch ads
