Test Error
The system is currently busy.
Please try again shortly, however if this problem persists, raise the issue with your service provider.
Test seems to run OK, then I get Server is busy, then a time out, then the error message.
"however if this problem persists" - - - it has at several different times since Monday.,
" raise the issue with your service provider." - - - This is me raising the issue.
Anyone else ?
No problems. I just wanted to check my profile on my nice new FTTC connection.
The working BT up to24 Mbps Beta tester option gives pings of around 40 ms.
www.speedtest.net gives pings of sround 25 ms. with an occasional sub 20 ms.
Hence I am trying to understand the consistent difference.

I'd always use a ping command direct from a command prompt: 'ping bbc.co.uk' or 'ping ntp.plus.net'

Good suggestion but I had already tried that.
It is now after midnight and I just have tried again. Still getting the same error message result as before.
@walker23. Thank you for the Ping suggestion, it worked a treat.
Only the profile reading needs checking now.

Is anyone still having problems with this. Have you the latest version of Java? what speed test was it? What browsers etc. If anyone is still having problems can you give as much info as possible.
Thanks

On my Windows 7 box for the past week or so it runs the download test fine but when it runs the upload test the progress bar goes up but zero data is uploaded. When it gets to 100% it just stops and nothing else happens.
It works fine on my Ubuntu box though. I don't know if a Java update stopped it working for me or if BT have changed and broken something.

Soldiers always said that it was when Kate Adie and a TV camera appeared that they realised that the battle was for real and serious.
Is Jojo the Plusnet equivalent of a now let the battle commence option ?
Meanwhile: info. as rquested.
ADSL & FTTC diagnostics is still NOT working as of 11:30 a.m. The up to 24 Mbps (Beta) option is OK.
Tested with: XP Pro SP3 and Java 6 update 33
Browers are Firefox 11.0 and Opera 12.00 (build 1467)
No other problems with either browwser.
@Anotherone. I support / agree with the Java/Browser comment.
The tester runs for both the Downstream and the Upsteam options for test one.
At 100% following completion of Upstream test1 -- the
"Testing please wait" message stays on screen with no response for nealy 2 minutes.
Then : An error has ocurred. The system is busy.
The message / result is identical with both the browsers and has been for me since last Monday.

I'm also having trouble using the BT Speedtest.net. I have been trying to use it for about a week at various times of the day. All I get is the revolving java circle at the top of the page where it should say Performance Tester. I am using Windows 7 with Firefox 13.0.1 with the latest Java update. I have even tried installing several previous older versions of java but still nothing.
I am attaching a copy of the top of the speedtest.net page to show you what i get.
Hope it helps.
