Video conferencing has become the new normal for most businesses, particularly those that have embraced hybrid work. How many video meetings have you taken this week? Chances are the answer isn't none. Since 1982, PCMag has tested and rated thousands of products to help you make better buying decisions.

) The Future of the Internet is low latency A large majority of popular domains already work with TestMy Latency. It may be just as useful and helpful validation for your own testing to try a LAN test yourself. This tool was first developed running on LAN to eliminate variables.
Host any http server, put this file under the folder /b/img/ then call TestMy Latency with the following URL: (e.g. Test using TestMy Latency on your own network. Think of it this way, TestMy Latency tests beyond normal ping so there are more variables that can affect the result. Because there is less to go wrong at the layer ping runs on you can expect a lower result from your command line. You can ping the servers from your command line at the same time you're testing to get a comparison. But better computers on better networks always fair much better. Even running this latency test on great computers with great networks shows that TCP isn't perfect. ICMP will show you the best case, TestMy Latency (using TCP) isn't as forgiving. But both are complimentary to each other. TestMy Latency is more sensitive than your typical ICMP ping for real connection issues. Read this latency test case study posted at on the difference between ICMP ping and TCP ping. “TCP Segment drops manifest as large increases in delay”
TestMy Latency is different and tests at the transport layer.

Your average command line ping simply can't give a full picture of what's happening on layer 4. ICMP is not used to exchange data between systems and has no way of interacting or detecting issues with the layers above it ( layers 4 through 7). TestMy Latency runs on the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) ( layer 4 - transport) where as normal ping runs on ICMP ( layer 3 - network). TestMy Latency is not the average ICMP ping you get from your command line. The vast majority of your internet communication traverses this reliable, ordered and error-checked delivery of a stream of bytes. Transmission Control Protocol or TCP is how you're able to see this page right now. Absolute zero is impossible on this test. This is a test where you want to score low and there's a theoretical limit to how low you can go. Latency is the amount of time it takes for a computer or application to respond to your request.
