Ping Tester overview
Version 1.7 released at 02/22/2020
By using the ping command in the Windows console, you can easily check the availability of your website or IP address. However, if you’re not a fan of the console, Ping Monitor can serve as a valuable alternative. This compact gadget is compatible with Windows 11 and Windows 10, and it allows you to quickly determine whether your domain is accessible or not. All you need to do is enter the domain name or IP address you wish to verify and click the “Run test” button. Ping Tester supports both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. If all tests pass successfully, the gadget displays a corresponding message; otherwise, it shows the number of failed tests.
Ping Tester has a minimal number of settings, but it provides all that’s necessary. Among the basic settings, you can adjust the number of tests the application should perform, change the buffer size, modify the time interval between two consecutive ping requests, and set the threshold at which a ping exceeding that time will be considered a failure.
Although Ping Tester doesn’t display additional information, it is still very useful because it doesn’t burden the computer’s resources. It consumes a minimal amount of CPU and system memory. Furthermore, Ping Tester is compatible with both 32-bit and 64-bit systems.
