Cool new app, Martijn!  
On my Pro 2019s, the action cards are currently still causing an error (Diag `4c8da65e-28c2-48cc-b1f7-e17f323102a8`)

Yes it surely does, Martijn.

#### Update

@martijnpoppen Shame on me 🤣 , it’s due to AdGuard blocking [api.fast.com](http://api.fast.com) (but why would it…) I honestly don’t know why Pro 2026 got results anyway.

I got fooled by the error message it self “_invalid flow card ID_”

Speedtest results:  
Pro 2026 @ ethernet dongle:  
up: 91.4Mbps,﻿  
down: 67.79Mbps

Pro 2019 2.4 GHz 802.11b/g/n:  
up: 36.16Mbps,﻿  
down: 39.23Mbps

(I have the slowest fiber connection available, max 50Mbps up+down)

#### Update2

> it’s due to AdGuard blocking [api.fast.com](http://api.fast.com) (but why would it…)

I just discovered [fast.com](http://fast.com) seems to be part of the “Netflix service” according to AdGuard.  
So, blocking Netflix service == blocking [fast.com](http://fast.com) as well 🫣

I have exactly the same problem… except I’m running only one Homey Pro 2026 with a couple of Pi-Hole servers that are running Unbound recursive DNS as their upstream resolvers.  
I too had the evil overlords Netflix blocked. At first I got the same error as you did @Peter_Kawa, so I whitelisted [api.fast.com](http://api.fast.com) and the test then ran, but with Zero bytes on the Download result. Then I remembered why I had been running manual speed tests with Ookla’s Speedtest for years… ever since I fell out with Netflix and blocked them ha ha, because the servers Fast’s test connect to are Netflix and that’s why I got 0 bytes download. To be honest, I have found Ookla’s Speedtest to provide more consistent results, but I haven’t tried many others for a fair comparison.

Internet Speed Test Results:-  
Download: 111.57Mbps  
Upload: 275.1Mbps  
ISP Location: London, GB  
Time: 20/05/2026, 01:26:08

@Peter_Kawa @Drako74 yes correct it’s part of Netflix. However this was the only Speedtest which I could run via a API. So you might consider unblocking Netflix? 😛

There’s a [Speedtest.net](http://Speedtest.net) alternative but it requires a binary to be downloaded. Unfortunately with homey shs there are way too many binaries to be downloaded and can’t be a guarantee that that works

I have to say that for me both work reliable.  
My homey only reaches 90mbits but that’s due to a 2.4 ghz iot network

Thanks so much for the app updates, Martijn.  
I’m probably one of the few Netflix-less folks out there 😉

To other AdGuard & non-Netflix users:  
What I did to make it work when AdGuard is running on your network:

❌My first thought, but this doesn’t work:

- add a custom rule to explicitly allow this URL: `@@||fast.com^`

✅What does work:

- Disable the generic Netflix service block

- Add these custom rules to block these URLs:  
(thanks @Drako74 )

```auto
||netflix.com^
||nflxso.net^
||nflxext.com^
||nflximg.net^

```

- Add these custom rules to explicitly allow these URLs:

The update to version 1.3.3 seems to have broken something. The previous version was working fine on automated hourly tests, logging results and alerting me if there was a significant drop in bandwidth.

The speed test utility of [Fast.com](http://Fast.com) primarily uses **[fast.com](https://fast.com/)** for the user interface, but the speed test traffic runs over [nflxvideo.net](http://nflxvideo.net) for the download/upload test data.

Netflix primarily operates under [netflix.com](http://netflix.com) but they use several dedicated domains for streaming content, including [nflxso.net](http://nflxso.net), [nflxext.com](http://nflxext.com), [nflximg.net](http://nflximg.net), and [nflxvideo.net](http://nflxvideo.net)

So as long as you allow the first 2, the rest can be blocked to prevent them from serving you ads and other content. (Yes I’m sad I know… but I work with domain names and DNS, so a few whois searches found a list of their backend domains used by their CDN.)

My example from my Pi-Hole servers:
