Ping Test — Free Latency Checker

Measure HTTP latency to global servers. Get min, avg, max and jitter. No app required.

📊 Ping Benchmarks

  • <20ms — Excellent. Ideal for gaming.
  • 20–50ms — Good. Great for all uses.
  • 50–100ms — Average. Fine for streaming.
  • 100–150ms — Noticeable lag in games.
  • >150ms — Poor. Gaming/calls affected.

📡 What Affects Ping?

  • Physical distance to server
  • Internet connection type (fiber vs cable vs DSL)
  • Network congestion (peak hours)
  • WiFi vs Ethernet (WiFi adds 5–20ms)
  • VPN usage adds 20–100ms
  • ISP routing efficiency

🎮 Ping for Gaming

For competitive gaming, aim for <50ms. Many professional players use a wired connection to ensure consistent low-latency. Choose game servers geographically closest to you. VPNs can sometimes improve routing but typically increase ping.
