Simple latency diagnostics, nothing more

TestMyPing was built with one goal: give you an instant, honest picture of your network latency without making you sign up, download anything, or wade through ads. Open the page, enter a host, press PING.

We measure round-trip time (RTT) from your browser to any hostname or IP using HTTP HEAD requests via the Fetch API. No special plugins, no WebSockets to a proprietary server — just your browser talking directly to the target.

Zero server-side storage

The technique

Each "ping" is a HTTP HEAD request sent via fetch() with mode: no-cors and cache: no-store. We record performance.now() before and after, giving you the full round-trip time including DNS resolution, TCP handshake, TLS negotiation, and server response.

This is not ICMP ping — browser sandbox restrictions prevent raw socket access. What you're measuring is the complete HTTP stack latency, which is actually more representative of real-world web performance than ICMP alone.

Jitter is calculated as the mean absolute deviation between consecutive ping times. Packet loss is tracked by counting failed or timeout requests.

Your data stays in your browser

We don't log your ping results, IP address, or target hosts server-side. All computation happens in your browser's JavaScript runtime. The only external calls we make are the pings you explicitly request, and standard analytics (Google Analytics) to understand aggregate traffic.
