Smokeping

Network latency and packet loss monitoring with beautiful historical graphs.

About

Smokeping is a powerful network monitoring tool that measures latency and packet loss to your network targets over time. It sends ICMP pings and visualizes the data in detailed graphs showing min/max/average response times, standard deviation, and packet loss percentages. Features include multi-target monitoring, custom ping intervals, alerting on thresholds, historical data retention, and a clean web interface showing trends over hours, days, weeks, or months. Perfect for monitoring your internet connection quality, tracking latency to game servers, or monitoring network equipment.
