Latency (ping time) measures the round-trip time for a TCP connection to the server. Under 50 ms is excellent for most regions, 50-100 ms is good for cross-region connections, and anything over 200 ms may cause noticeable delays for real-time applications like video calls or online gaming.

Jitter is the variation between consecutive ping times. Low jitter (under 5 ms) means a stable connection, while high jitter (over 20 ms) indicates network instability that can degrade VoIP, streaming, and real-time communications even when average latency is acceptable. Packet loss above 1-2% usually signals a network problem and should be investigated.

How It Works

1

Enter Host

Type any hostname, domain, or IP address. Choose how many pings to send (1-10).

2

We Ping It

Our server resolves the hostname and sends TCP connection requests, measuring the round-trip time for each one.

Frequently Asked Questions

This tool sends multiple TCP connection requests to any server or website and measures the round-trip time for each one. It reports individual ping times, packet loss percentage, jitter, and min/avg/max latency statistics — similar to the ping command but from your browser.

Yes, completely free with no signup required. Just enter a hostname or IP address and ping instantly. There are no daily limits.

Traditional ping uses ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) packets. This tool uses TCP connections, which measure the time to establish a connection on port 443 (HTTPS) or 80 (HTTP). TCP ping is often more useful for web developers because it tests the same network path your users experience, and many servers block ICMP but allow TCP connections.

Under 50ms is excellent (typically same region), 50-100ms is good (nearby regions), 100-200ms is acceptable (cross-continent), and over 200ms may cause noticeable delays. For real-time applications like gaming or video calls, under 50ms is ideal.

Jitter is the variation in ping times between consecutive requests. Low jitter (under 5ms) means a stable connection, while high jitter (over 20ms) indicates an unstable network. High jitter can cause issues with video calls, VoIP, and real-time applications even if the average latency is acceptable.

Packet loss is the percentage of ping requests that didn't receive a response. 0% loss is ideal. Any packet loss above 1-2% can indicate network problems and may cause noticeable issues with web browsing, streaming, and real-time communications.
