A Ping is a command which can be executed form a command prompt on a windows linux or unix machine which tests network connectivity.

It uses the format: PING (IP address)

e.g.

ping 192.168.0.1

On a windows machine three attempts are sent to the target IP address and each attempt is timed and displayed in milliseconds. A low ping is a subjective estimate of this "round trip time" (RTT) time. The smaller the number the faster the computer being "pinged" is responding.

A very small ping time is described as a low ping, a longer delay would be a high ping time.

All of the times described by the term "Low ping" is subjective and defined by experience, but as a guide a ping time of less than 100 mS would be considered a low ping time and one of 250 mS or more would be considered high.

Is Higher Ping better than lower Ping?
