MR60/MS60 speedtest not working on latest firmware V1.1.6.122_2.0.58
Speedtest through both the Nighthawk App and Web UI do not work. the App registers 0.00 and the webUI says "The Speedtest failed to detect the bandwidth, please check your Internet connection or try again later." I have done factory reset of the the devices and it still does not work. Please advise -- the last time this worked was ~ 12/20/21
Well, Speedtest randomly started working again on it's own. The firmware version is the same and no other changes were made, so I guess there must have been something on the service side, though short of an API change, I can't imagine what. In any case, the issue is resolved.

Unless you wnat to revert back to something prior. Thats up to you. If the system is working other wise then leave it and wait for NG to fix all this. They need too look into this. Nothing else we can do here. No idea when a fix will be coming so don't ask. Just keep looking at NG download page or here in the forums once in a while to check. I try to post new FW notices when NG releases them.

Further, as far as I can tell, the issue was not apparent when I first upgraded to the .116 version, but only appeared in the last month or so, can we even be sure it's the result of a firmware change and not the result of some change, like dropping a deprecated API call, that Speedtest made recently that wasn't applied to this firmware?

What modem/gateway is it connected to?
Is everything else working fine?
Modem/Gateway: Nokia Gateway 3 model G-240W-E
All else seems to be fully operational -- no changes to my setup or config. Last known time this worked was ~12/20/21 (last time I ran it with success) -- haven't tried since that date until recently.
This would be a double NAT condition which isn't recommended. https://kb.netgear.com/30186/What-is-Double-NAT

Couple of options,
1. Configure the modem for transparent bridge or modem only mode. Then use the NG router in router mode. You'll need to contact the ISP for help and information in regards to the modem being bridged correctly.
2. If you can't bridge the modem, disable ALL wifi radios on the modem, configure the modems DMZ/ExposedHost or IP Pass-Through for the IP address the NG router gets from the modem. https://kb.netgear.com/25891/DMZ-on-NETGEAR-routershttps://kb.netgear.com/24086/How-do-I-set-up-a-default-DMZ-server-on-my-Nighthawk-router
3. Or disable all wifi radios on the modem and connect the NG router to the modem, LAN to LAN configure AP mode on the NG router.
