BT Speed Test

If this is in the wrong place, can someone move it?

In an attempt to help someone earlier today, I opened the BT speed test page, and just got the background, thought nothing of it, and copied and pasted the link into my reply. To check something on my connection, I have just done the same, and got the same result, so am unable to run a test.

Has the BT Speedtest moved?

Yep, @Dan_the_Van - see my resulting 'picture'. NOTE: It has worked previously, and nothing has been changed on my system.

OK @Dan_the_Van FWIW, it runs OK on my iPad, but certainly not on the Linux laptop.

Re: BT Speed Test

Cheers @shutter . I'll have another look in a while, although it is no great issue - I normally use either the TBB or speedtest.net sites, and the actual link still copies and pastes properly.

Re: BT Speed Test

I had that happen a week or so ago, a few presses of F5 fixed it.

Re: BT Speed Test

Cheers @Browni , I'll give a go if I need it. Usually use TBB or Speedtest.net though.

Re: BT Speed Test

Didn't work for me, @Browni . I can only think it is something on the Canonical implementation of the latest FF browser. No problem, though, as I've said before.

Re: BT Speed Test

Cheers John!

Control-F5 forces a complete download of the web page so there must have been something in your cache which didn't work well with the current page.
