DVPN Node will not start - Stuck on Speed Test

[HammontreeArt]

Describe the bug
The DVPN Node will not start. It is stuck on the SPEED TEST and then generates an ERROR.

To Reproduce

1. Must have a node in GeoIP location info city=Richardson country="United States"
2. Stop Node
3. rename /root/.sentinelnode/data.db
4. Start Node

Expected behavior
The Speed-Test should complete and advance to the next step of the start-up process.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• Linux
• Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Additional context
I am using Android Exidio App to connect to the node.

@bsrinivas8687
The SPEED TEST finally completed. (down time 8 hours).

My guess is that the server it was connecting to locked out the NODE ip because of too many attempts.

I have my docker command setup to RESTART on failure...

    docker run -d \
        --name sentinel-dvpn-node \
        --restart unless-stopped \
            .....
      sentinel-dvpn-node process start

Please, do you think that's a possibility?

Got an answer from Florian via Telegram.

I can tell from the Docker Log that the speed test keeps trying the same url / address.

Recommendation:
Maybe you could add a waterfall speed test check.
Check 1st speed test
On failure go to 2nd speed test
On failure go to 3rd speed test
etc.

Facing the same issue as OP
-Node stops when reaching the "performing internet speedtest" line with the following error in the output log.

TO: Developers
Adding to @Arnav-247 comments above.
Looks like that Speed Test site is down for awhile. If there was a waterfall check on failure that would help.

This would be a good solution because the nodes are continually out of service due to this failure and we cannot do anything about it.

I stuck to in speed test. I think is problem with speedtest-go API.
I open issue here:
