Question

Anyone know how to get the speed test working on the RBR850?

Every time I try to use it it just hangs.

Is there some trick (like putting netgear.com or ookla.com in the domain search path)?

Hmmph ... just looked and there is no domain search path.

It's less important now that I have gigabit service, but when I had 300 mbps service it would've been nice for QoS to have the bandwidth numbers so it could leave upstream bandwidth available for ACK/NAKs.

-- Thanks, Verne

Well then, does anyone know what domain name the QoS speed test is trying to hit?

It would make it a lot easier to debug the situation if I at least knew where the QoS speed test was trying to go.
