Speedtest Tracker: open it, first login, settings, fixes

Automatically runs internet speed tests on a schedule and tracks the results over time. Visualize your download, upload, and ping history with beautiful charts. This is the short card for it — the two minutes after you press Enable, and the page to come back to when something is off.

First login

Login: admin@sparkbox.local — the password was auto-generated for you (Settings → Service Passwords). Installs enabled before v1.6.223 may still use admin@example.com / password — change that immediately.

Any password the installer generated for you is under Settings → Passwords; the Open button offers to copy it.

Worth knowing

  • Speed tests run automatically on a schedule — check the dashboard for trends
  • Use the settings to adjust how often speed tests run

When it breaks

If it will not open, check the app card first — a red dot means it is restarting or unhealthy, and this walkthrough reads the reason from its log. Tom AI on the dashboard can do the same for you.

Where your data lives

Included in the dashboard's Backup by default. Restoring that backup on a fresh install brings Speedtest Tracker back exactly as it was.

Questions, or did this not match your box?

Every guide here came from a real problem someone hit. If yours behaves differently, say so — that is how these get corrected, and how the fix gets prioritised.

About this page: Rendered from the app's own manifest in SparkBox, so the ports, settings and first-login steps match the version you are running. If something does not match what you see, say so in d/sparkbox — the manifest gets fixed and every copy of this page with it.
