Something not quite right here?

Only on FTTC, who need FTTP If I turn AdGuard off results are normal.

Doesn't work with ADBLOCK PLUS or /and no script in ff, but used to work fine, guess they want to spam us with their [censored] adds, oh well until a solution is found back to the flash version i hate ads especially from fraudsters/people traffickers like shave the bearded children, who have imported them into the uk those that our PC deceitful government tried to hide from us, totally unchecked even their real ages

If they are going to force us to view adverts i guess its time to find another speed test site.

There were seven or more ads on the site with blocker off. That's what annoys me about ads: If sites were reasonable with ad usage I probably would never have bothered with blockers in the beginning or now paying for adguard for example but they aren�t. There are frequently so many ads on some sites that make them just about unusable and or send your eyes & brain wappy. Plus many ads on some sites are malicious or deceitful.

Just used speedtest.net in firefox with AdBlock Plus running and it worked fine here, showing my normal Infinity 2 broadband speeds even over 2.4GHz WiFi. Not sure about no script, never used it.

I can use speedtest.net on my phone as the adverts only appear after the teast has finished, i am using a PC connected by Ethernet (which TT OCE's ask you to use if you have a problem) and the site is now unusable.

I am now using this site it doesn't use flash and will run without you adding a post code - https://www.broadband.co.uk/broadband-speed-test/

It's terrible without an ad blocker. So many animated banner ads. It wouldn't be so bad if they were static adverts, that way it wouldn't lag the browser.

Its going to back fire on them as people will stop using the site.

And you are posting on a site that has its own speed test

http://www.thinkbroadband.com/speedtest

The postcode is preferred but a second click will let you through

There is even a version with no adverts at http://labs.thinkbroadband.com/speedtest or over SSL if you want https://labs.thinkbroadband.com/speedtest

The test can be added to the home screen on mobiles for a more app like experience, without any of the tracking issues apps can carry.

Speedtest.net recently published that Scotland has an average speed of 66 Mbps, clearly they have problems with their tester or their analysis is very foobar.
