Ping statistics for 33.33.33.33:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% lo
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 10ms, Maximum = 20ms, Average = 12ms

The question is...
What is TTL means?
and, If that IP is future my dedicated server IP,
When I ping it...sometimes 1 packet say time out.
Is this really matter for dedicated server IP?

I hope that u guys understandable my question.
sorry for bad english...

Thanks

ttl ? i am not sure about that no.

but you dont want any packets timing out. If this happens regulary - say one time out every time you ping 4 times - then I would look into it - otherwise the occcasional RTO is nothing to be worried about.

TTL is Time To Live.
about packets timing out, that can happen, specialy if you pinging from a remote host and passing lots of routers in the way.

TTL stands for "Time To Live" - essentially how many ms routers wait before just dumping the packets (makes it so they don't just stay out there forever if there's some serious network problem, etc...)
