Available tests


PING - cost 1 credit

The PING test checks if a particular host or IP address is reachable across an IP network by sending multiple ICMP packets and listening for ICMP replies. The test results display the round-trip time and packet loss rate between hosts.

Traceroute - cost 1 credit

Performs a traceroute from a selected location

TCP Traceroute - cost 1 credit

Performs a traceroute from a selected location using TCP SYN probes.

MTR - cost 1 credit

MTR combines the functionality of the traceroute and ping programs in a single network diagnostic tool. As mtr starts, it investigates the network connection between the host MTR runs on and HOSTNAME by sending packets with purposly low TTLs. It continues to send packets with low TTL, noting the response time of the intervening routers. This allows mtr to print the response percentage and response times of the internet route to HOSTNAME. A sudden increase in packetloss or response time is often an indication of a bad (or simply overloaded) link.
