As an example, you ran a speed test from your phone and the connection from your phone to the access point is 600mbits, the connection from the access point to the router is 1gbit, the wan connection running across VM's network is 200mbits and the link going from VM to the external hosted server is 10mbits, then that entire connection runs at the speed of the slowest link and the speed test result will come back at 10mbits.
Yes I understand that hence why I did use multiple speed test websites and different scenarios to cover everything.
