PingPlotter is a network troubleshooting and diagnostic tool for Windows 98, ME, 2000, 2003 and XP. It uses a combination of traceroute, ping, and whois to collect data quickly, and then allows you to continue to collect data over time to give you the information you really need to identify problems (both short-term and long-term trends).

PingPlotter is unique in its ability to collect data (over a period of hours, days or weeks), and then allow you to focus on particular aspects of that data to determine where the problem is happening. PingPlotter graphically shows problems in a way that allows you to shorten the time it takes to pinpoint a problem.

PingPlotter comes in both Standard and Professional editions, in addition to a freeware edition. Please see the PingPlotter product site for more details.
