Ping Test Tool
Measure response time and latency for any website or server.
⚠️ Browser ping uses HTTP/HTTPS fetch requests — not ICMP (the protocol used by the system ping command). Results measure HTTP response time including DNS resolution and TCP handshake, which is higher than raw ICMP ping. Firewalls and CORS policies on some servers may cause failures even when the host is online.
What is a ping test?
A ping test measures the round-trip time (RTT) — the time it takes for a request to travel from your computer to a server and back. Lower is better. A ping below 50ms is considered excellent for most uses, 50–100ms is good, 100–200ms is acceptable, and above 200ms may cause noticeable delays in real-time applications.
Traditional ping uses ICMP packets, which is a raw network protocol. Browsers cannot send ICMP packets directly for security reasons, so this tool measures HTTP fetch response times instead — which includes DNS resolution, TCP connection, and server response time. The values will be higher than ICMP ping but are useful for measuring web server response time from your location.
How to use
- Enter a hostname or URL in the input field (e.g.
google.comorhttps://example.com). - Select how many pings to send — 5, 10, 20, or 50.
- Click Ping to start. Results appear in the log in real time.
- The bar chart and stats (Min, Avg, Max, Packet loss) update as each ping completes.
- Click Stop at any time to halt the test early.
