Hi All

I have been having trouble getting Pingtest.net to work lately. I start the test fine, but after it runs for a bit it says a server is blocking my connection so it connot work out my packet loss. Using a Huawei 1820 modem on a Netgear MBRN3000 router and 5 gig Cell C bundle. It used to work just fine. Any help?

Have tried pingtest.net a few times over the last week or so and I keep getting this same error about half way through the test.

"Packet Loss Test Error - Couldn't connect to the test server. A firewall could be blocking the connection or the server might be having some issues. Please try again later"

Also using a 1820 but on a Trendnet 655BR3G.

Good Day

We seem to be experiencing the same issue, are in process of identifying if it’s a Cell_C issue or the host, hoisting that site!
has anyone been able to test with other networks ?

Hi Cell_C

I stay in Solheim, Germiston. I can access SpeedTest fine and get between 6 and 7 mb/s download and around 1.5 mb/s upload consistently.

everything else works hunky dory, now if only you could get me the same speeds as Human.Debris I'd be ecstatic :D
 
Same here

Speedtest.net gives me a ping of ~60ms, pingtest gives a packet lost test error
Using firefox

Neotel works fine on the same pc.

This has been happing with me since march, November - Feb, it was able to get pingtest.net results and played online games happily...ever since March its a fail... no ping no on line games!

Please post a solution if cell c has found one?
 
It does seem as if something changed within the Cell C network in Feb. Up until then Pingtest worked and there was full access to PSN and XBL (nat completely open).
