That still doesn't seem to be a close location.
A month ago I got a VPS and I wanted to run speedtest so I downloaded the Python speedtest script and ran it without specifying a server and this was the result

Good, right? I shared it with my friend and he told me to use the official speedtest CLI because it gives better results. I installed it and, specified a close server (UPC Romania) then ran speedtest and that was the result

I even tried the same server with speedtest Python script and the official speedtest CLI, the official speedtest CLI was much faster. Did you know now why I asked you to use the official speedtest CLI and specify a close server?

Also about locating the IP you can use check-host.net it works very great and it also supports IPv6
