📡 Ping & Latency Tool
Test network connectivity and measure latency to any host.
📡 What is Ping?
Ping is a network diagnostic tool that tests connectivity between your computer and a remote host. It measures round-trip time for packets sent to the destination and checks if the host is reachable.
- Connectivity: Verify host is online
- Latency: Measure network delay
- Packet Loss: Detect network issues
- Response Time: Check server speed
⚙️ How Ping Works
Step 1: ICMP Request
Sends ICMP echo request packet
Step 2: Network Transit
Packet travels through routers
Step 3: Echo Reply
Remote host responds with reply
Step 4: Calculate RTT
Measures round-trip time in ms
