During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Commenting on this one since it seems most focused and useful.

tl;dr: Upgrading from 2.1.1 -> 2.1.2 should fix this.

The initial error appears to be a result of upgrading to 3.9:
> Deprecated since version 3.2, will be removed in version 3.9: Use method Element.iter() instead.

https://docs.python.org/3.8/library/xml.etree.elementtree.html#xml.etree.ElementTree.Element.getiterator

The further errors are a result of an imprecise fallback to another XML API.

It looks like this was fixed in a commit that made it into v2.1.2:
https://github.com/sivel/speedtest-cli/commit/81bba6070c9069f8770212f119232d0622ddb111

Indeed, testing with that version downloaded from github works just fine:

    $ wget --quiet https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sivel/speedtest-cli/v2.1.2/speedtest.py
    $ chmod +x speedtest.py
    $ ./speedtest.py --list | head -3

Similar problem has been detected:

install speedtest-cli
run speedtest-cli

I think it has something to do with newer python versions, than those it has been written for.
