Cox speed check not working

I have been trying to run the Cox internet tools speed test since yesterday with no success.  It times out in the latency test, never gets to the upstream/downstream tests.  Tried from both Firefox and Chrome, both give same result.  The Ookla speedtest.net site works fine.  Is there an issue with the Cox flash app or is the target server down?  BTW, I'm in the Providence market.

Broken for me too. Using Chrome Version 38.0.2125.111 m and in RI.

I would post the picture, but seems that is broken with Cox too. :-(

I've opened a ticket for this and sent it to our NOC to investigate.

Same thing I'm getting, Health Edge.  Also on same version of Chrome and 33.0.2 of FF.  Flash version 15.0.0.189.  speedtest.net also uses Flash and works perfectly.

Yes, they also use the same software on their servers by Ookla. I think the server itself is down, atleast for RI. I tried changing my Zip code, and even using a proxy to change the server it tests from, but no go. I also checked all the Speedtest.net servers near RI, and all work. Can anyone confirm if down in other markets?

The ticket I put in was for my own account in the Hampton Roads VA area.  Hopefully we'll see something back soon on that request.

Not sure if it's related, but the speed test through my connections is currently reporting an invalid or expired license.

They really want individual tickets? Come on. A moderator was able to replicate with his account. Chris, any update on your ticket?

Great. Let us know when either of your tickets get resolved? To be honest I am not comfortable giving my primary password out to anyone. I am pretty sure its a national problem...so can't those NOC engineers just try with their own accounts for "examples"?

I agree with you, Health Edge.  The problem is repeatable here using Windows 8.1, Flash plugin 15.0.0.189:
1. Firefox 33.0.2
2. Chrome 38.0.2125.111 m
3. IE 11.0.13

I have also tested it on a different system running Firefox on Ubuntu 14.04, same problem.

I am located in the Meriden CT market.

In San Diego, CA, speed check is working fine. Although the format changed last week.

Speed test not working in Omaha, NE, also.  It hangs at the latency test and eventually times out.  I'm running a Mac with OS 10.10 and Safari.  I get the same results using Firefox.

Hi laskie,

What errors does the speed test give you when you try to run it?  This is something we will need to report to our engineers to look into if it isn't working.

Always the same error - "Test timed out.  Please try again later"
