The thing that we are intrested in is the very last number (shown in bold above). That number shows the average number of milliseconds it took the host to respond to your computers ping request. Note 1: Note that the response time is not limited to server's connection, but the Internet itself, and and user's connection. Note 2: The ping request works for checking the speed of all websitesm not just web hosts.
Wow this actually worked .. Awesome tutorial which even works on my crapy computer too.. But I have only one small question what means all thous IP and byte sizes which showes up? .. Im not very smart in such things.. GooD JoB by the way uiop.. Kepp the tutorials coming
There are some neat useful options that come with "ping", for example, try this command:
ping www.trap17.com -w 5000 -t -l 65500
This command pings www.trap17.com, the "-w" attribute (followed by 5000) tells the program to wait 5 seconds (5x1000 milliseconds = 5000 milliseconds = 5 seconds) between each ping and the "-l" attribute (followed by 65500) tells the program to use a specified buffer size, in this case, it is 65500 bytes (that's pretty much large), you can call that a "heavy duty" ping. And finally, the "-t" attribute makes the program ping the specified address until you stop it manually.
If you would like to do a more advanced ping, try "tracert"! Type it in your CMD prompt and you will see through what servers does your little package go!
Example: tracert www.trap17.com
Result:

you can pull down old servers like that. and if you get tons of people to do it at once, you can take down people's networks...i also don't recommend you do that or you'll have a call from your ISP and the FBI knocking at your door
LOL! That's just plain WRONG, and you can't "kill" a server like that! You can only choke up it's connection to the internet, and that's still a maybe (first condition: a xxx MBps connection).
Such attacks are called DoS (denial of service) attacks and attacks from multiple computers are called DDoS attacks (distributed denial of service attacks). If you intentionally use them, then there is a **SMALL** chance that you will get in trouble. Anyway, if you ping a server like you're crazy (with large packets), you will probably be warned first. And if you are dumb enough not to stop, then you will (again: maybe) get into trouble. This is the worst case scenario... But, when you ping a server, you BARELY do anything to it! If you open a web site hosted by that server, you will do more "damage" to it then pinging it!!! After all, servers were made to serve, right? Besides, if the server feels that you are pinging it too much, it can simply ban your IP address, and... end of story.
Yea, I know a person who made a program that did this in VB class at school, and he took down the web server because it pinged a infinate amount of times. Fortunately, he was friends with the District Tech Coordinator, so he didn't get in trouble.
Yes man i know about this. If we ping we can easily know the server host ip address and it also shows how fast is your conn, this can only observed by ISP or else a well know person of networking sort. I always ping my server from my computer to maintain the conn. at its full speed instead of landing up in slow speed, try this if u want to know the servers are active or not. Good luck..!!!

A 17ms ping time is usually considered pretty good. Most free webhosts have 40ms and greater ping times. Also, keep in mind that all ping times are subject to a large number of variables (see my original post). What ping time did you get for Trap17?
If you have recently purchased a domain and facing problems with the workings, the first thing which
you should check is the DNS setting. Dns settings determine, how to domain is pointed to the Server
and How the server is connected to the world (internet). Ensure, the DNS settings are perfect to
make sure, things work smoothly and people across the globe don't have problems accessing your
site. The basic check would be : PING Suppose you register your domain (example.com) at
ComputingHost. You get an IP for your website. In this case, suppose its 64.69.35.170. Yo....

Did you taking too much time to access your favorite sites? Probably the problem is on the server
used by those sites. To make sure that is the problem, use Windows PING facility. Ping is a small
program, which sends a 32-bit signal to the Web site server. Next, Ping record the time needed by
the server to answer it. To activate Ping: Click on the Start-Run menus, type command, and then
click OK. Type PING "site name" in the MS-DOS prompt window, for example PING www.yahoo.com. In a
moment, the result will appear on the screen. A result less than 300ms is normal spee....
