Hi Brian,You should call their support if you think there���s something going on that���s impacting your connection.They will detect if your connection is in use and doing more than (I think) 64kbit/s in the last 30s or something, and won���t run the tests.They have some clever stuff to detect if your wifi is in use, without being connected to your network and without being your AP. Perhaps that���s playing up?Pretty sure it���s publicly documented, check out the links in that original post and if not we can dig up some other stuff I���m sure.On 27/09/2018, at 11:38 AM, Brian Cole <brian.cole@waikato.ac.nz> wrote:Hi all,��Longtime listener; first time caller.��I signed up to SamKnows (partly out of curiosity and partly so I can have hard data about my connection that I pay for) at home.Over the last week my connection has gone from slightly adequate with the occasional drop out to a slow connection with regular drop outs.��Netflix and YouTube are stuttering, video games drop connection, and websites hang at random times.��I can't help but think that the email shared by Dylan sheds some light on why that maybe.��This programme won't be terribly successful if everyone gets sick of having a terrible connection during peak hours and shuts the white box down.��Pretty frustrating.��Brian����--
