Frontier's own speedtest page is 404

HooRU

Ok, so tomorrow I intend to do a direct connect to the ONT.

What do you guys want me to run, the same CLI lines as above?

It appears that Secaucus is not working right again. Virginia is ok.

Is there a Secaucus server we can CLI to?

HooRU

Secaucus is down again.

HooRU Your troubleshooting is chaotic. What are you actually trying to fix? A Frontier speedtest server in Secaucus? Is it not reachable to you? Is it showing a 404 error? Is it just not showing upload speeds?

HooRU

It’s not 404, but when you run the test, it fails and you have to reload the page. I’m not chaotic at all. Dallas and Secaucus have problems, that’s all. Why, if you are helping me, all the heaping of criticism?

HooRU

Ok, never mind. I don’t like the hard time that I’m getting and I know it’s not my own hardware, I’m not entirely stupid. I’m out of this rabbit hole. MacLeech, you need to be nicer. You come off as a know it all.

Clearly I’m not a know it all if I don’t know what your problem is after 86 posts in this thread.

I’m stopping for a sanity check and trying to figure out what you’re trying to test/fix by running all of these speed tests because the end goal isn’t clear. If you feel that is me giving you a hard time, sorry, but if we don’t what the problem you are trying to solve is, we can’t help.

It’s very possible that when the Frontier speedtest servers were offline (causing this 404 error thread topic) and I assume were updated, a change was made on some of them that doesn’t play nicely with your unchanged hardware or software you’re currently using. I’ve seen that happen with Ookla based speedtest servers before. I’m assuming that is what you’re trying to figure out right? Why some Frontier speedtest servers don’t always display upstream speed test results?

Can you post a screenshot of what you see when “it” fails?

And maybe read what we are asking you to do and follow it. I think this place is supposed to about learning and helping fix problems. Three people have told you the identical next step and yet you haven’t done it.

I hate that I need to post a Wikipedia link but here it is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troubleshooting
I know you aren’t stupid. I’m posting it for those that may not be as smart as you.

You can deal with your own broken crap if you can’t follow simple instructions.

Other people have tried to help me be nicer but I keep winning the battle. 🙂

I was never seeking help because it is clear to me that Frontier’s test servers or the path to them isn’t up to par. I intended to simply point out that for a few weeks they have had issues and while they might be doing improvements, we have no way of know that.

Thanks guys for pointing out the CLI method of testing that is more valid and dependable.

My internet is not down, but there have been a couple of times things lagged.

It also may be that changes moving to Verizon systems may be underway. Yes, ISPs are always doing work, but judging by the complaints I see elsewhere it would behoove them to post online some of the changes, if improvements, that are underway and target times.

There is no need to perform a direct to ONT connection, Virginia tests are mostly fine and eero reports full speeds.

I was never seeking help, I don’t know why people got that idea to begin with.

HooRU

I’ve put off OS/system updates for this thread but I need to do them so for now, no need to go any further.

HooRU no need to go any further.

Since the OP needs no help, it sounds like this topic has reached a conclusion.
