It is a tool to help us determine if your connection speed is the root of your issue.
To find out if you are having connectivity issues, we recommend using PingPlotter.
PingPlotter helps you pinpoint where the problems are in an intuitive graphical way, and to continue monitoring your connection long-term to further identify issues.
- PingPlotter Standard is a lightweight network troubleshooting, diagnostic and monitoring tool. It can run in the background collecting data while you continue to run applications, and then allows.
- PingPlotter has a timeline feature that provides you with critical insights into the operation of your network, while showing you exactly when the problem occurred. This has the benefit of showing you patterns and repetition in the case where there is a difficult troubleshooting scenario that is taking place on your network.
PingPlotter is a network troubleshooting and diagnostic tool. It uses a combination of traceroute, ping, and WHOIS to collect data quickly, and then allows you to continue to collect data over time.
PingPlotter will map the route from your computer to a target and calculates performance metrics that help determine the origin of network issues. It helps pinpoint network problems in an intuitive graphical way and continues monitoring connections long-term to identify issues.
The Pingplotter report shows where your information is being sent through the internet (via ICMP packets), and what is happening along the way. Each 'hop' (numbered on the left hand side) represents a location your data is traveling through. The first few hops are local, hop #1 normally being your computer, and #2 normally being your router or modem. The middle hops are normally your ISP and transfer locations, and the last few hops are your destination, in this case our servers. Packet loss is an indication of information being lost along the way. 100% packet loss is an information stoppage. 100% packet loss on the first, second, or third hop is normally an indication of a firewall, antivirus program or router blocking internet access. Partial packet loss midway through the hops is normally an ISP issue, and may require contacting an ISP.
