The Ping test


This page tests the connection between your computer and several sites on the Internet. For each site, we report some statistics about the round-trip time (RTT) between your computer and the site. The RTT is the time in milliseconds for a "ping" packet to travel from your computer to the site and back again. This number can vary significantly because of the random nature of Internet packet routings and because of random loads on all the computers that handle each packet.

The test starts automatically when you open this page, and takes about one minute to complete. You may exit it at any time by going to another page. To start over, press your browser's refresh/reload button.

reason for getting no results?

  • Software and hardware firewalls can block ping packets.
  • Some ISPs will discard ping packets within their networks.
  • High ping times (> 1000 ms) are normal for satellite connections.
  • These are US sites; users outside the US may have high ping times.
  • There are no "tweaks" for your pc that improve ping times.
  • The page uses ActiveX and requires Internet Explorer 5.5 or higher.
