Universal Fast Ping

Without denying that computers can do a lot of things in offline mode, having network issues can be one of the worst problems you can have with your computer.

Universal Fast Ping is a tiny tool designed to help you determine the overall reliability and quality of the network connection when the outage is actually a problem coming from your end.

Following a quick setup that entails decompressing the archive, you are ready to use the application right away.  You can get started by entering the IP address in the dedicated field and then hitting the Enter button. The data packets sent, lost along with the round-trip are neatly displayed in the graph that constitutes most of the UI.

It is worth mentioning that the application enables you to customize the interval time and packet size based on your needs. You should bear in mind that some routers and hosts do not support large packet sizes and hence, the results are compromised from the start. You should make sure to use packets suitable for your network connection.

What sets the application apart is the fact that it does not wait for the pings to come back before sending other packets. However, when the data packages return, the tool analyzes and matches them to determine the round-trip time.

Not only does this make the testing operation considerably faster, but it also enables a more efficient examination of high-speed networks with an equally high round-trip time.  On a side note, the highlight in this case, stems from the fact the distance does not influence the end results.

In the eventuality that you are looking for a good method to determine the reliability of your network connection without accounting for the distance, then perhaps Universal Fast Ping could come in handy.
