One Ping Only

One Ping Only is an extremely lightweight utility designed with only one purpose: that of pinging an IP or host in order to check whether it’s alive or not.

The situations that require such a utility are countless; whether you can’t run a ping operation from command line due to security restrictions or simply want an effortless way to check an IP or domain for availability, you can make use of One Ping Only without restrictions.

It comes wrapped up inside a very simple interface, which makes it all the more easy to use and fit for any type of audience, from beginners to more professional users.

The main window displays only one field, corresponding to the IP address or domain you wish to check and the button that carries out the task.

All your efforts are reduced to specifying the host to be pinged, with the observation that for domain addresses the format must be ‘domain.com’, or with ‘www’ in front of the address; however exclude ‘http’, because it will fail to deliver the correct results.

Once you’ve done entering these details, you can press the button that will also retrieve the results. If the host is alive, the status will show ‘Success!’, while ‘Fail!’ designates that the domain is not responding or isn’t available.

One Ping Only is a good alternative to performing a ping operation manually. It’s easy to use, very light in size and also, portable, which means you can carry it around on a removable drive and launch it on any computer without the need to install it.
