"Because you deserve to know when your Cable or DSL connection is offline!"
Pinger monitors your network or internet connection by "pinging" different hosts. A host can be a computer, printer, router/gateway, or anything with an IP address connected to a network that can respond to a ping. Pinger periodically pings each host to determine its connectivity state. After a ping, the RTT (Round-Trip Time) is shown, usually in milliseconds. This allows you to determine latency of your network connections, and overall network availability.
If a ping fails, you can optionally select to run a trace route to determine where the network failed.
A log of all passing RTT's and fails is kept and a historical graph is built, allowing you to track your network uptime and performance.
Pinger also includes a windowed interactive ping and trace utility to replace the standard windows "ping".
Add pinger to your system tray. When you need it, you'll always know when you're connected...and when you're not.
