I tried to send test ethers to the main account address created on Ethereum wallet by using the Ropsten faucet (http://faucet.ropsten.be:3001/) but did not receive any . My wallet is synced with Ropsten test network.

Any suggestions on how I can get some ethers into my testnet account?

Here's a list of a couple worth trying, since some might get some downtime or experience high demand depending on when you try:

Some of these allow to donate your testnet ETH, so please do once you're done using it so it doesn't become lost forever!

When I tried, the faucet mentioned in the question gave 3 ETH every 7 seconds:

    It doesn't work. – sunwarr10r Nov 08 '17 at 09:58
  • Yes, it's been down for about 2 weeks, hopefully it comes back up soon. – Tom Hale Nov 08 '17 at 10:03
  • @TomHale It's still not working, but I'm hopeful it will come back soon, too. It returns a txHash! But that tx hash doesn't work. Where is it getting these tx hashes? Just making them up!? https://ropsten.etherscan.io/tx/0x9b2454fdd299b6e82bdb146855ec4a03a2c71bbff61c87171d38b1ec67adca00 – lmat - Reinstate Monica Jan 12 '21 at 19:48

https://faucet.metamask.io/ this worked for me. I accessed it from the buy button after selecting the Ropsten Testnet
