Flash Speed Test
In modern times this generally is not a problem of an out of date player. You can reset your browser's cache and make sure (for Google Chrome users Flash is automatically silently updated) that Flash is up to date. Download latest version of Flash here: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ Trying to fix friend's computer... Just reinstalled flash (it wasn't working before), but does not show in verify page. Add-ons show it is installed, but Active-X add-on is not loaded. Both flash add-ons are enabled. 2013-03-25 02:33:38 by edited by Mike the flash speedtest to megapath in san francisco hasn't worked in months. perhaps they don't support this any more & need to be removed from the list. it works to other providers. the java speedtest to megapath also fails. it also works to other providers. Why are the test results labelled "undefined"? 2009-05-01 18:31:57 Actually, I have Adobe Flash 10 and only see the bars. The test verifies this. 2010-09-02 12:10:53 Maybe MegaPath should be removed as they have not worked for over a year. I''m having issues in testing for speed with Firefox, but with Google Chrome. The only browser that I have that does seem to work, does''t freeze and no causation popups, is Safari, and even then I'm not getting the speed that I should be getting. I'm in Riverside, CA and have U-Verse. Anyone else seem to have these issues?? 2012-07-18 13:19:26 just bought new MacBook Pro, had to download Flash from Adobe to try to run Flash speed tests. So far, can't complete the test and get error message saying someone about script interfering with flash.
Java speed test seems to run fine but you also have to download java engine for the new Macs - it is NOT included with factory delivered OS, in this case OSX 10.7+ TheMega Path test requires a recent version of Java on your browser. And additionally, you have to get the test through a link to them. by edited by JMGullett Are you using FIREFOX with a PLUGIN enabled? We are noticing a small percentage of users, all running Firefox, are not able to fully utilize the test. We believe this is because they all have the same Firefox plugin enabled. If you find out WHAT plugin breaks the flash test, please let us know. Note: We are receiving some reports that the FasterFox addon is inhibiting the flash test. If this is true for you, please contact a site moderator to add your report. Stay tuned.

I have no idea about the Plugin that be preventing the speed test to run properly. 2010-02-07 21:56:22 No download speeds reported, no AV or firewall software running, Win XP Pro SP3 IE8, what gives? 2010-09-25 13:38:36 runing very slow 2010-05-02 11:05:56 Attempting to run the Flash speed test on Ubuntu 9.10 with Flash plugin 10.0.42.34. Attempts to test against Megapath in San Francisco it loads and shows the dial but no tests are run, not even latency. When I run against LinkLINE to Los Angeles it works. (Note: the Java test also fails against Megapath while it works against speakeasy in Palo Alto.) 2010-06-18 15:10:44 its downloading but very slow 2010-07-24 04:29:37 Never records download speeds. No firewall, etc.. just does not record them, what gives with this? 2010-08-10 23:20:57 Running Snow Leopard with Safari's latest release. Absolutely never runs at all on any server. This is not the case for me, I am not running ZA and with my AV client disabled it still does not record download speeds. You ought to fix this! 2010-08-21 21:51:44 thank you 2012-06-29 04:11:42 At the moment, and for the past few days, the speed test to Speakeasy in NY seems to be broken: initial connection is never made and the test times out. The other tests seem to be perfectly normal. It doesn't work in Firefox 3.6. I got a report about a script being hung. my torrent download only 10 kb per second.what is the main problem.i have imp/s internet speed 2011-01-24 07:57:04 i want more speed
2011-07-23 11:21:13 i want more speed 2011-04-02 09:04:01 no valid 2011-04-07 14:41:39 very slw t dwnlad
2011-05-15 05:28:36 the download speed is to slow 2011-11-24 05:30:44 I got (mbps)4.98 and 4.08 on 2 different Download test choices then 0.62 and 0.605 for upload tests. But what does that mean. I have DLS, Power Mac G5 w/ Airport - haven't tested the MBPro yet but my daughter says it won't upload a simple little video (extremely slo the fails)which she's usually successful with. Sept 10 in Chico College town - maybe influx of students since school started up again - crowding the "BandsWidths"???
What speeds should I be seeing?
JJ 2012-09-11 00:56:18 i want more speed
2012-11-04 18:47:54 the download speed is slow 2013-03-06 07:48:54 the download speed is slow
2013-03-07 04:50:11 DSL speed test 12345678900987654321 2013-03-07 04:51:31 my speed and daonload speed is too low 2013-03-07 04:52:34 by edited by Mike Our current version is, unfortunately, CPU intensive. We are working to fix this. It is probably that the flash test is utilizing ALL your CPU during the animation phase, and this is depressing the results. We expect to release a test that will work for slower CPUs very soon. Possible reason #2 Some fixed wireless ISPs are getting artificially low results for UPLOAD SPEED under flash. This pattern is not just our flash test -- all flash tests show the problem, and some other technology online speed tests show it as well. Our Java test, and a basic ftp test, do not show this problem. We don't yet have an idea why this may be, but we are collecting data. Possible reason #3 The flash plugin is not efficient enough to test VERY HIGH SPEED connections (fiber). If you are on fiber, you are advised to stick to the Java plugin-based speed test, which can test 100mbit and beyond. Flash is unable to fully utilize a 100mbit connection, so it under reports very fast connections.
Flash test is unreliable due to high cpu load. 2012-02-04 12:21:16 None of the above reasons seem to be plausible. Flash results USED to be comparable with Java tests on the same computer. Wondering if it has something to do with Apple's war with Adobe (Flash), resulting in worse flash performance now? I have uTorrent and have used it for a long time but my internet service provider is HughesNet and it's terrible [in my opinion]. My downloads are sooooooo slow it's ridiculous. I'm not computer savvy & was wondering if maybe you could enlighten me as to why in the hell this is!? I'm getting really frustrated, to say the least! Is there something I can do to make it faster? Thank You... Natalie [CherokeeRoze39@aol.com] 2012-01-06 21:24:39 by edited by JMGullett
Can we get statistics on the speed test? E.g., it is far more valuable to get mean or average speed + variation (std. dev. or other). This is very important to know for to qualify/test for any type of real-time applications, video conferencing being most importaqnt to us. Even more valuable would be to test for packet jitter. 2007-11-07 19:34:25 Would it be possible to implement an averaging report, numerically (rather than graphically) comparing average user test speeds against the average speeds reported by the requested comparison sample (i.e. the ISP or Zip Code filters)? It would be useful for troubleshooting certain issues by knowing how your own connection is performing relative to those of the same ISP, as well as determining whether you're getting an appropriate service quality for your local region. The fastest available speed in our little rural town (01070) is 3Mbps (and we've only had that for two weeks). How is it possible that when I filter by zipcode is shows scads of people with 10Mbps and higher connections? There are only 600 people in town and no industry, and I KNOW that nobody has a T3 in town. I like your site Very Much!! My problem is understanding the results. Exactly what are the number's units written out as clearly as possible-please don't abbreviate?? We're interested in comparing your results with what our provider says we're SUPPOSED to be getting & I've discovered everyone's results are different units = ? kilobytes ? kilobites Megabytes bites etc etc How in the world are we supposed to understand our results when there's all these different ways to list results?! It's also good to list things we understand in the graph of our results overlaying known results ie; T1(area of speeds possible using that download source)speeds, DSL speeds, dial up speeds etc etc.
I realize I may not be clear in what I'm interested in seeing but I'm trying! Our problem is not being able to compare apples to apples...bites bytes etc etc etc.
Thanks very much for your Valuable Time!

Atlanta GA 2009-03-25 17:15:13 my speed s good but download utorrent speed why bad his download speed bad plase help me i download one thing lot of time plase help me
2009-04-04 02:23:48 thank you 2009-06-15 10:51:14 The speed scale of the graph seems to be off by a factor of 10. i.e., 15 Mbps is indicated as 1.5 Mbps. Why do I get the upload graph data but not the download?
I have 3 old points on each but I just get a new pip on the upload.
The actual data shows up as text above the graph Just not on the graph раздачи и загрузки 2009-12-01 11:30:10 gyorit torrent valу 2010-09-23 08:47:37 When you say 210 is the download speed can you describe what unit of measure
you are using to describe the speed? Is this per second ? Per Minute?
When I use Windows to download a file I get speeds of 21 kbs? 2010-10-12 20:21:45 by edited by JMGullett
Iwant my toorent faster 2010-11-11 02:35:19 Hi,i want my toorent faster 2011-02-11 01:43:53 I want my torrent faster 2011-02-15 13:58:15 I want my torrent to be faster 2010-07-24 09:52:34 I want my torrent to be faster 2010-12-16 06:37:37 i wan"t my torrent to be more faster 2013-04-06 09:04:52 I want my torrent faster 2011-06-09 07:07:03 Iwant my toorent faster 2011-05-08 18:47:48 What is the maximum speed this test will correctly report? 2010-01-29 23:11:14 Thanks for telling me to do "the java based speed" test! I do have a faster-than-2oMbs-service. My test reported I had over 5MP download speed, but in real world application, I don't get any where near that. Sometimes I struggle watching a 360p Youtube video and downloading large files never breaches 700KB/s so for me, this test doesn't prove anything. 2010-07-25 16:58:25 its so slow 2010-08-24 22:00:11 i got speed 8 mb download 4///but torrent ,it not so, fast as i want(((
2011-01-22 12:48:54 atef mstor 2011-03-25 06:11:52 This helps a bit. Just went from 6Mb to 12 via UVerse. All Flash test sites show my downloads as being b/w 8.62 and 6Mb; upload pretty consistent. Java tests have me at 10Mb download with the upload still being consistent. Not sure which to trust though :-S I completed your application, except for the speed of my Internet which is NOT listed for my area - Baltimore, MD for Verizon FiOS. So, how am I to submit this application after all of my data input and time invested, just to have this one part of the application incomplete due to technical reasons? R.Spero 2012-02-29 12:09:55 The testing from this site using flash and java are always a lot slower in results then other sites. Today it shows mine at 13-15 Mbps dl and normally other site's shows it to be 35-60 Mbps. Torrent sem erro de e/s por favor 2012-07-05 03:49:56 Iwant my toorent faster 2012-09-30 09:34:08 I want my torrent faster 2012-09-30 09:36:30 | ||||||||||
