Hello, @GhostlyLurker 

Can you provide a timeline of when this issue began? Have there been any recent changes in your network or service?

Started roughly last week just like OP states. The test starts and says there's no outages in my area but when it starts to run the speed test for my XB8, it immediately says,  something went wrong. It gives two options to either try again which doesn't work or continue testing all devices on the network without testing the speed to the xb8.

GhostlyLurker thank you for letting us know and for the details. Are you able to try running a speed test from this site? https://speedtest.xfinity.com

GhostlyLurker Thank you, we did do a new speed increase last week, I believe it was on the 6th. Normally these updates smoothly and do not cause any issues, but a modem reset may be needed if you are not able to test the speed currently. Have you unplugged the modem from the power since this started by chance?

Hello, @user_xkpeiy thank you for taking time to create a post. You've contacted the right place for assistance, and would like to help with the Xfinity App speed test issue. I just pulled up the Xfinity App on my mobile device (iPhone 15), and was able to complete a speed test. 

I did have a few questions to see if you had attempted any of these steps: 

- Clear your devices cache/history

- Uninstall and reinstall the Xfinity App

- Have you attempted to run a speed test from our website, when logged into your account: https://www.xfinity.com/overview (do you get the same something went wrong message)

@XfinityJustinC​ I have completed steps above but still get "Something went wrong" error every time I run speed check in app. I can run from Xfinity site but does not give speed to gateway, only speed to device. Ever since Xfinity upgraded their speeds last year my speed tests consistently start very low and on two or three attempts it works its way up to the speed I should have (2gbps). Prior to the upgrade my speed tests almost always were a bit above my plan speed. Not sure what Xfinity is doing, but it seems shady.

Wow, my experience is almost identical to yours. This forum has always helped me get a resolution so I think we should be able to get to the bottom of this. I made another post before seeing this one.

I have noticed many strange things since the Firefox 136.0.2 64bit update a week or two ago.

I get the ONETRUST page with tiny type talking about cookies and no speed test.

But the xfinity speed test works fine on chrome.
