Re: Results are bogus

said by battleop:

That project is BS, plain and simple. They have no mechanism to determine why the test failed. A misconfigured router, company firewall, or even norton could cause this test to fail. All they are doing is matching up their fails with the whois on the IP, then falsely accusing the ISP of wrong doing.
The code is up for review. Review it.

It looks for very specific things at very specific moments, and repeats the tests.

And even if a particular installation is faulty, human beings review the data to separate noise from fact.

They have detected RSTs on 7 other ISP networks, but they've only named Comcast and Cox because the data consistently agrees across the population of tests.
