Re: New tool - smokeping
each colored line segment is one pass. One pass is, as the graph says, 20 pings of 1k each. Your IP is checked roughly every 5 minutes (you can see the little purple line spans about a 5 minute period and represents exactly one test).
The grey smoke shows the distribution of the latency - the more variability among the latencies in the 20 pings, the more "smoke" appears above the avg result (the colored line). Hence smokeping.
The non green colors indicate packet loss of some kind (key below the graph). The red line indicates severe packet loss during that cycle.
When I do some decent downloading, my graphs show more smoke and a rise in the colored line segments indicating greater average latency, but no loss. Your graph is indicating a lot of loss. |
