It's Been over a year or maybe 2 years Brad was suppose to let someone know, The License has expired http://speedtest.via-satellite.net/ Please have someone renew it!
Just trying to understand. What was so unique about this link versus speedtest.net or testmy.net? Was there something special about this link?
Given speed tests all over the map, at different locations and at different times of the day, I can understand why Viasat would want to de-emphasize speed tests. Some users get very acceptable speeds, others, depending on time of day and location, get tests in the toilet!
No speedtest.via-satellite.net is the preferred site listed in the Viasat Installation and Service Call Standards - not speedtest.net. That's the only thing special about it - it's flash based and flash has long been recognized as less accurate than HTML5.

It's also Flash based so will be biting the dust as Flash is deprecated in more and more browsers and retired by Adobe.
