Hi the speedtest package is 10.5 mb and I don't have enought space to run it on my openwrt , any option to make storage bigger on openwrt so i can upload this backage? Thanks
USB port, if your device got one.
you could try https://github.com/luizluca/speedtest-shell too.

If you're strapped for space, speedtestpp clocks in at roughly 66 kB installed.
(My line is particularly sluggish today.)
Edit in 2024 since this post still gets a lot of attention: speedtestpp fell out of development and was dropped for OpenWrt's packages. Its successor, speedtestcpp, is significantly larger, almost to the point where it defies its raison d'être.

Depending on your architecture, you could scp the official speedtest.net CLI utility (if its available) - it appears to be much less than 10.5 MB.
I installed package but I can't see the interface , i need to install another package?
speedtestpp is a command line utility, you need to SSH into the router to use it.

That's actually already more elaborate than necessary. A simple speedtest is enough.

I installed package you said , but because I'm in other location i need to do SSH through puplic IP can you tell me steps to do SSH remotely ?
What part of "blocked by firewall" is tricky to understand?
If you're remote, how did you install it ?
Or did someone do it for you ?

I have access to router remotely
You can't, if your ISP blocks it, but there's a luci package for running cli commands via luci, find it, and install it.
Or you haven't done your home work with the firewall.

Then you're already connected thru its Public IP - simply run the command.
Then you'd additionally configure your router for access on the other ports you desire.
