Debug Console Not Loading

Hi Developer Forum,

I can't seem to access the developer console on both my work XD and home XDS box on port 8085. When I go to the URL, it just loads and loads and loads, with the screen completely white. I tried resetting to factory on my home box to no avail. Any ideas here?

I'm really hoping I can resolve this issue ASAP because it has put a stop to all development efforts for me.

    Works on a Roku 2 as well (using Firefox), although I don't see any advantage over using a Telnet client.

    It works for me using Roku firmware 3.1 build 1017. It works better with Firefox and Chrome. With Internet Explorer, the linefeeds are not handled properly.

    That doesn't work for me on my Roku 1 or my Roku 2, no matter which browser I try. Maybe you have some plugin installed in your browser that enables it...

    No plugins installed, at least not for Chrome and IE. I can also access port 8085 using the Windows Mobile browser on my HP iPAQ PDA running Windows CE 4.20.
