There is an android Ap for speedtest.net.

May help you with some mobile divices.  Not sure if they have one for Apple.

Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Internal bandwidth testing applications

We’ve been using the speedtest.net mini app to test on-campus bandwidth.  This 
helps troubleshoot wifi issues when people claim they aren’t getting the speed 
they want.  It eliminates the variable of internet congestions and bandwidth 
management that we would get from just going to speedtest.net.  It is also user 
friendly, so the help desk can send them a link and ask them to run it.

However, it is flash based which means it doesn’t work on mobile.  Also, ours 
just expired again (it does that every few months) and there doesn’t seem to be 
an update.  Good time to look for another tool.

Does anyone know of one we could host in our datacenter, that is user friendly, 
and that doesn’t require flash or java?
