Just want some opinions.

I think you should also provide the period of time that the average is refered.

Well, the result isn't too great but it depends on where you did the ping test from. I mean if you do it from the UK and the server is in America, then the ping result will be much higher.

You can't do the tests from different places then take the results and averege them together because the averaged result will be meaningless.

The thing about pings are: If you're close to the machine you're pinging, the ping times are usually lower. If your further away they are generally higher.

It is low is better or higher is better, I dont understand this concept(still learning)
I will apreciate an answer.

Check your pm's...

(Sorry Chicken :D)

It took place over 4 hours at night, from my computer in minnesota, and friends in SC, PA, NY, TX, and CA.

No problem with the answer, Mar-y-sol:

The lower the ping, the better, it measures how much time it takes to send a packet to a server, and to recieve it back from the server.

thanks

It's my pleasure.


Hey! When did I become an addict??? :confused: :confused: :confused: :D

enjoy it

The ping I'd be worried about there is that the max was over 1000 - meaning some latency somewhere along the line, which could mean an overloaded circuit or poor network - or maybe the distance and a small hickup anywhere along the line, who knows.
