Speedtest server of T-Mobile
I am asking for a friend. She is American and I am from Europe. My friend is considering to change her internet connection from Comcast to T-Mobile. She wants to know what speed T-Mobile is capable...
I'd recommend using the 'speedtest.net' app for a basic test. Typically T-Mobile does have dedicated servers listed.

Thank you for your answer. I will advice my friend accordingly.
I did take a look at speedtest.net and noticed a couple of the providers from my country also have a presence. I ran a few tests with my provider's server at speedtest.net and compared it to the speedtest my provider provides on its own pages. The result are comparable.
Speedtest.net has been around for ages. I remember the name from two decades when I started online. Back then the name was sometimes scoffed at and that left a bit of a stain to the name. It's time to update that image that was still lingering somewhere.
In general I guess it makes sense for providers to provide a test server to third party speedtest sites to get a proper and consistent read out for their customers.
