Bad result from DirecTV Speed Test
We have pretty good Internet access at our current location. At this location, our HR44/500 receiver, at software level 0x13af Tue 6/16, managed to download quite a few episodes of a popular program from a channel number above 1000, which seems to imply via the Internet. Also, a common computer internet speed test gives good results as shown below.
BUT using the DirecTV speed test at Menu:Settings:Internet Steup:Speed Test, its "speed gauge" ends up at the zero point at the left side, and a result code of 88-491 is displayed. Does this speed test generally work? What is the meaning of 88-491?

Result code 88-xx simply means your receiver is connected to the internet successfully

It is a reference number for tracking AFAIK.

I have the same issue with my HR44. But I am not able to run a playback of a show or view on demand content. I have an HR24 which works fine. I have a direct ethernet connection. Is there a firmware update I am missing. (Current - 0x13af)
