dnossal Posted September 20, 2005 CID Share Posted September 20, 2005 I have wildblue and am getting very odd download test results. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong. I have the fastest package, do NOT have an internet accelerator and I have disabled my firewall. How can I get an accurate test? :::..

dnossal Posted September 20, 2005 Author CID Share Posted September 20, 2005 I had deleted my temporary internet files yesterday and I did that again just now. Same results--Any other thoughts? I notice that the test takes a long time to give me my results--it gets stuck on the page "sending data to database." Would really like to know my true download speed. :::..

resopalrabotnick Posted September 20, 2005 CID Share Posted September 20, 2005 it gets stuck on the sending data to database page. what do you do then? hit back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnossal Posted September 21, 2005 Author CID Share Posted September 21, 2005 When it gets stuck on the sending data page--I either wait an awful long time and eventually I will get the goofy result page, or if I get sick of waiting I just hit stop. I guess I will call Wildblue help and see if anyone there has ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
