 Unable to get the Miami Broadstar Java Speedtest Working

..just wondering if this is a local routing issue via Comcast or something else. For about 3 weeks now I'm unable to access our Miami, Broadstar.com java speedtest.

»/speedtest?loc=4&premium=

All the other Java applet speedtests work ok.
The flash to Broadstar also doesn't work

Currently running Java - latest version




This is what I get & it won't complete loading to get me to the "start" button

C:\DOCUME~1\-->ping 67.14.225.6

This occured right around an IP change (if I had to pinpoint something).

I know you think you understand what you thought I said, but what I'm not sure about is that what you heard isn't exactly what I meant.

Your not in Charleston?

Try changing your routers mac address to obtain a different ip and see if you have the problem. Or use the default mac address of your router if you have already changed it and see if there is a change.

I have found, that changing my mac address to obtain a different ip puts me on a different subnet.

Just a thought.

Be sure to power cycle your modem after you change the mac address on your router.

Nope..tried both..same issue.

Even tried direct connect from 'puter to modem (eliminated the router from the equation)

It has to be Comcast, no?

You can't ping, but what do you get on a tracert? Where does it stop?

I can tracert from way up north ok.

Did you get a different IP when you direct connected? If your PC mac was cloned on the router you probably kept the same IP.

Based on the updated tracert you IMed me, it's the last hop that is the issue.


The snippet is mine and you're stopping at 66.165.181.202 so my first guess would be that the hosting provider of the server is blocking your subnet probably because of some action they determined was a threat to their infrastructure.

Try to change your IP first and see if that helps. If not, you want to try and figure out who to contact that hosts it and see if they will unblock your subnet.

Do you have the most current version? This site does have a tendency to stay on the bleeding edge

OOPS Just for the record it works fine here...though there was a SLIGHT logo delay I don't usually see.

Then again Comcast can and does screw up pretty much anything... why I have DISH and ATT/BS DSL

I have had Comcast for over a year and half here and only had one or two days with a hick up. Actually, it was all of Charleston that experienced an "outage" on both occasions.

LIL..

Since you also put your pc on the and got the same non desirable results.

Could you do a tracert to see if it is for sure a Comcast problem or another ISP?

Not really I just saw the Java logo for a split sec before the test came up and I usually don't.

Check out my post above at »Re: Unable to get the Miami Broadstar Java Speedtest Working and you'll see the end of the tracert. Lil IMed me hers and it stops at my hop #9. So it's getting out from Comcast onto the Internet but stopping at 67-14-225-6.broadstar.com [67.14.225.6]
