https://speedtest.net is the old goto for general speeds

https://fast.com to check streaming tv/video throttling

FCC's on phone app for throttle checks as well (only on phones)

Others:

My regular speed tests are:

https://www.google.com/search?q=speed-test

And the two below lets you test both IPv4 and IPv6 speeds separately which sometimes may be different.
This is the cleanest version of Ookla which is used by 90% of speed tests around the world including SpeedTest.net
Your router must have IPv6 enabled and your mobile service too, otherwise the second link will only show you IPv4 speeds.
