I'm getting this error: "TypeError: Cannot read property 'settings' of null"

Haven't had any problems before.

Changing line 480 in /usr/local/lib/node_modules/speed-test/node_modules/speedtest-net/index.js

From:
serversUrl = 'http://www.speedtest.net/speedtest-servers.php'
To:
serversUrl = 'http://c.speedtest.net/speedtest-servers-static.php?load=1'

Allowed the test to proceed. I'm not sure if something changed on speedtest.net's side.

Can you open an issue on https://github.com/ddsol/speedtest.net instead, which is where the issue is occuring and share the link to the issue here.

Also seeing this issue as of a few days ago. Fixed by following @jwiebalk's solution.

lasseebert commented

This is fixed in speedtest.net here: ddsol/speedtest.net@1974163 and released in version 1.2.7. Just upgrading that package will make it work again.

I updated speedtest.net to 1.2.7, still got the same error.
