This temporary solution by paeore worked for some sivel/speedtest-cli#769 (comment)

if you update to 2021.4.1, it will be fixed permanently

Seems it could be an issue with speedtest-cli

The upstream issue was just resolved. So if the dependency version in HA gets updated, this issue should be solved. I will prepare a PR shortly.

workaround on linux. open terminal and run

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sivel/speedtest-cli/master/speedtest.py | python3

Or just update to HA version 2021.4.1 instead. No need for any manual workarounds.

Yes, that is known. It just by accident coincided with the HA release, but has no relation to it.

In the repo they discussed the issue and that it appeared in the last 24hrs or so, also its an issue that ookla have introduce not with the speedtest-cli
