Test cannot read upload speed

[Golden Eyes]

I had made some changes and ran the test again, but it does not complete the Upload test. The Ping is around 100 and the Download is around 1327; but the Upload is above 500 before it levels off and then decreases to the point that the results show not tested for all three.

 

What do I need to do?

 

Thanks I appreciate the help

If you test separately from each of the standalone bandwidth test servers, do you get that same result all four times?:

No. They vary as follows:

 

Location Ping Download Upload

Washington 94 1326 Not read

L A 127 1326 Not read

Dallas 106 1317 670

London 165 1327 Not read

 

Thanks

What's next?

Does an upload test to Dallas always complete and the other three always fail, or is it random?

Thanks for helping, Intel

 

I ran the test again four times for each site. The results are as follows:

 

Washington

94 95 96 95

1329 1326 1325 1326

736 Loop 726 Loop

 

Dallas

103 114 114 115

1326 1326 1326 1326

744 Loop 737 708

 

L A

4126 128 127 125

1325 1325 1326 1327

Loop 704 Loop No read

 

London

165 164 170 166

1326 1325 1329 1324

Hangs near 720 719 No read Hanges near 670

 

The Loops are when it reads the Upload, but doesn't finish. It just runs back down.

 

No read is when it just stops after registering the Download.

 

Hangs is when it reads it, but doesn't stop. It just hangs there fluctuating.

 

On the Loops and the Hangs, I had to exit and go back in from your reply.

I appreciate your assistance, but I have a 9:00 appointment in the morning and should have been in bed by now; so I won't be able to check back until tomorrow.

 

Thanks - I appreciate your help

Do you get the same results from SpeedTest.net?:

Your can drag the blue rectangle around the world map, then click on the stars for testing at different locations.

Thank you, IntelGuy, for helping me.

At the time I couldn't get the test to complete the Upload Speed, I was also having a problem updating my .NET Framework. I finally contacted Microsoft Support in regards to my Error Code 0x643 when attempting to update my .NET Framework 1.1. After following their directions to remove, reinstall, and update it, I ran the PC PitStop tests had didn't have any problems with the UP/Downloand Speed Tests.
