just updated my waterfox to version 56.3, or as their new version scheme calls it, 2019.10 and the test works correctly now using new version of test whether signed in or not.
 
isn't there a way to mark topic solved?

i didn't have any extensions installed on that one post above either and have disabled it on any other computers i've used in the course of this discussion. new test does work correctly even with ublock enabled in any other browser.
 
thanks for checking into it :)

no, not a "fresh" install. only fresh since the 19 release and been updated/upgraded since. the computer i was on in my last post above was a fresh install of mint 19.1 and then immediately upgraded to 19.2 though.
 
will have to do this tomorrow as not at home today. i did post a topic about this on the mint forums and, so far, 1 other person says they get the same thing happening.
 
this is that person's reply:
"It's the same here. Download tests work fine but the "old version" upload test does also work. There's an option toward the bottom right.

I did notice that in both site versions, the upload data amount isn't populated by default, but entering the desired amount in the new version still resulted in being bounced back to the home page. Necessary scripts allowed but will also see if disabling Ublock Origin for that site makes any difference"

it's not that i don't trust this site, just simply showing you what i got when clicking that link as there may be other people who click that link and leave instantly!
 
i've only gotten the 404 error in IE and i don't use that browser very often.

wow!

first time ever since getting speed increase getting advertised speed when using IE11

so, what are you doing to the site that makes it almost work?

now that i've looked at that thing a few times, and see what differences there is a different browsers, i can understand where you're coming from, even if you aren't using proper terminology!
 
i have a few computers here to work on that don't any anti virus' installed at all, let alone bitdefender. after i get done cleaning them up, i'll try some tests on them and see what that TiP looks like.
 
thank you for the assistance.
 
i consider this topic closed.

I almost won't argue that point in the least, mudmanc4, hence why I said I was testing this AV.
 
Normally, or at least 50% of the time, I don't use an AV at all either, but when working on other people's computers and knowing how stupid some of them can be, you need to install anything and everything you can to help them!
