Daily speed tests not initiated by me.

At most of the times that the test have taken place my PC was switched off and WiFi disabled on the router.
The router is always on.
Any suggestions as to what is running these tests?

Quote from: dvorak That could explain it, it's possible you've picked up a new IP and the previous assignee may have conducted daily speed tests.
I don't think so.
If my dynamic IP changes, my results history is still there.
They all disappear if I clear cookies.

It is still happening. Here is a screen shot of the recent results.
The two peaks were the tests initiated by me. The others seem to happen around the same time each day at a much slower download speed.
My router is a BT Voyager 2110.
