The Speed Test is in my understanding a part of the QoS feature, required for tuning the QoS - with the QoS feature not available on the R6020, this might be absent on both the R6020 Web UI and the Nighthawk App.

I have an Android app. This has a clear "Internet Speed" button. The layout is a bit different from this:
But it is there. What does your new screen show?
One way that people have fixed issues in the past is to remove the app from their device and reinstall it.
There have also been reports that the iStuff app is broken.

Yes - but what if the Nighthawk App is connected to a router not supporting QoS and the (QoS-) Speed Test?
