Hi Dave,

from Germany (on link sqm-shaped to 105/36 gross rate -> max achievable TCP goodput IPv4: 98.3/33.7, IPv6: 96.9/33.2):



The thing runs pretty short (as most throughput tests) and the latency is measured without load. 
Under Safari te sharing feature seems not to work:
https://wifi.wtf/results/undefined
undefined is not a link 

IMHO the FAQ is amusing and not wrong, the tests has clear visuals, but at the end of the day it seems pretty much a run-of-the-mill throughput test with servers likely only in NA...

The results themselves look OK, if not great, a 120ms path and local cross traffic take their toll.
