Speed Test function

I just purchased and installed an Orbi RBR760 with 2 RBS Satellites replacing a 5 year old RBK50 set up and noted that the speed test function was missing.  Support advises that this is no longer available only on this system. Please provide this in a future update.  It is a helpful tool, and it makes no sense that it is not available on this specific model.

    Problem with the speedtest is that it'd frequently pick the wrong server and give incorrect speedtest results. 

    Plus it hosted the test directly on the router. So not only wasn't it the most accurate, it didn't show device specific speeds.
