Description

Speed tests in Mist on SSR devices can fail for various reasons. One such reason is instability over the wan link.

Symptoms

  • Speedtest fails to complete successfully

 

The following messages can be seen in mist agent journal log ("128T-mist-agent.service.log" in the tech-support-info  bundle)

Solution

  • Check for high latency/packet loss on the wan links. Mist UI - Wan Edge - Insights Page might also have interface specific loss/jitter/latency information.
  • Run manual pings from the SSR wan interface to internet (for example 8.8.8.8) using Mist UI testing tools to verify latency/packet loss values.
  • Review the ISP connectivity over the wan link and fix the network latency/ packet loss issues.
  • Contact Support for further assistance
