Last time I setup Iperf3 it was semi difficult, and would be impossible
trying to coach a soccer mom on how to setup over the phone.

I am leaning towards a CPE that has speed test built in, or a low cost, sub
$100 device we could ship to the customer to install. Anyone know of
something like that?
