Has anyone EVER been able to get into that thing to test? I've tried hundreds of times and it's always busy.

Anyway, I'm glad they updated their results to note that none of the ILECs are using forged packets. That still makes we wonder about their data however. Did they re-evaluate their detection methods for ALL tests, or did they just re-inspect the ILEC results?

I just tried their test and got the "all servers are busy" msg.

Edit:
I finally got a test to run(not the bittorrent test, but a link characteristic test):

The load time for Java doesn't help matters, either. But I have successfully ran the test a number of times. Prior to this press cycle, I found that I could run a test within a minute or two -- I just had to keep retrying in order to do it.

I managed a result once; out of about ten tries. Said my ISP wasn't interfering.

Wonder if their test methodologies are as flawed as their server resource allocation seems to be?
