How to generate your own CenturyLink speed map

I was motivated to figure out how to recreate blakehaas' useful map and brush up on my python skills.

I have created two scripts: »github.com/mtdoyle/cl_speedcheck

The github readme has instructions on how to run each one.

mrp04 has a modified version of the speed checking script which works better on Windows due to a minor Firefox issue (I ran mine on Ubuntu), which you can see here: »Re: Updated Minneapolis speed test map

Hope this helps!

I incorporated mrp04's browser functionality into cl_speedcheck.py. His method was more reliable at generating valid results by selecting the first "suggested" address. Thanks for figuring that out, mrp04!

The address_generator.py script now takes two addresses at the start of the script and it will figure out the most NW point to start at - so order of the addresses you input doesn't matter.
