## Common questions

### What QNAP settings should I change before starting the containers?

Replace /path/to-data and /path/to-custom-ssl-keys with real QNAP folders, set PUID/PGID and a real MariaDB password, and publish 8080 for web access and 8443 for HTTPS.

### Can it help tell whether my ISP or local network is causing slow speeds?

It can help identify whether slow speeds or buffering come from the home network, such as mesh routers, rather than the ISP.

### Why might my self-hosted speed test show lower download, upload, or latency?

Low results can come from server, network, or client-side issues, so identify the root cause and optimize those areas.

### Does it monitor internet connection performance and uptime?

Speedtest Tracker monitors the performance and uptime of your internet connection.
