Ping Plot

Every response to every hop, plotted live. The clearest way to catch latency spikes, jitter, and packet loss as they happen.

Every ping, every hop, on one graph

Ping Plot is at its most powerful when running a continuous traceroute. The graph plots in real time and makes it immediately obvious when a particular hop starts behaving erratically or when packet loss begins along a route.

Each dot on the graph is a single ping response to a specific hop. Hover any dot and a tooltip reveals the hop number, the response in milliseconds, and the exact time the response occurred. The live graph scrolls continuously as new data arrives.

Look back in time

Need to review a time period that has already scrolled off? The VisualRoute History tool preserves every captured response so you can analyze what happened hours or days ago.

Use case.

Intermittent slowdowns on a VPN or SaaS app. Start a continuous trace, watch the plot, and the problem hop announces itself the next time the issue occurs.
