Diagnosing connection issues can be difficult, but you can rely on a traceroute utility to identify which nodes along the way are causing problems. However, many such programs are not very intuitive, so they may not be suitable for average users.

Ping Tracer is a traceroute utility that features an intuitive GUI, making it accessible to all types of users. It enables you to track the route of data packets from your PC to a host, and it generates graphs that show you the status of each note over time.

To start using the application, simply enter the address of a host and specify how often it should be pinged. Once you click Start, multiple graphs will be displayed in the main window, one for each of the nodes.

Ping Tracer makes it easy to figure out where data packets are being slowed down or lost, allowing you to determine whether or not the connection problem is on your end.

The great thing about this program is that it enables you to monitor your connection continuously and go back to specific times when you experienced slowdowns or disconnections.

The data is presented in a very intuitive manner, with latency being indicated by the length of the green lines and disconnections being highlighted in red.

To get a better look at the data, just click any of the graphs to zoom in, and then hover the mouse cursor over certain points in the graph to get an exact reading.

On the whole, Ping Tracer is a well-designed application can help you identify the causes of connection issues without requiring any technical knowledge. It presents the gathered data in graph form, one for each node, and it makes it easy to pinpoint the exact time and origin or slowdowns or disconnections.

What's new in Ping Tracer 1.18.0.0:

  • Quality of life improvements:
  • Reverse DNS lookup is now performed in the background, so it doesn't slow down the startup of pings anymore.
  • Multiple hostnames can now be separated with spaces and/or commas. Previously, it only allowed commas.
