Ping / Latency Tester

Test your real connection latency to any game server directly from your browser — nothing to install. Then see quality ratings for FPS, survival, MMO, and more.

Live Ping Test

Runs entirely in your browser — your PC connects to the server, not our servers. Uses WebRTC UDP when available (matches cmd ping closely). Falls back to HTTPS for hosts without a STUN server — HTTPS latency includes TCP + TLS handshake overhead and reads 2–3× higher than actual game ping.

Enter a hostname or IP above and click Run Test. Results populate the quality analysis below.

Running a live test auto-fills these fields. You can also type values directly.

How to Improve Your Ping

  • 1.Use a wired connection. Ethernet consistently delivers 5–20 ms lower latency than Wi-Fi and eliminates wireless interference that causes packet loss.
  • 2.Close background apps. Streaming, cloud backups, and updaters compete for bandwidth and increase jitter — quit them before playing.
  • 3.Choose servers closer to your location. Latency is largely determined by physical distance. A server 500 km away will almost always beat one 5,000 km away.
  • 4.Check for ISP throttling. Consistent high ping at peak hours can indicate traffic shaping. A nearby VPN endpoint sometimes helps bypass this.
  • 5.Verify your DNS settings. A slow DNS resolver adds latency to every new connection. Switching to 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 can shave off early-connection overhead.
