brightspark Posted March 16, 2009 CID Share Posted March 16, 2009 Good day guys, just wanna know what a ping "ms" indicates? When i ping my DNS server addresses i usually get an almost constant "ms" at 35ms and 34ms. Whenever i ran speedtest at [this.site.has.been.banned.for.spammig], im getting ping "ms" always higher than my DNS "ms". What does a high "ms" mean? Is it a laggy connection? Is it still lag even if im getting 2.5Mbps but high "ms"? Please help. Thanks in advance. Please don't post links from that site, thanks.

zalternate Posted March 16, 2009 CID Share Posted March 16, 2009 Ping ms = Ping milli second. 1000 mili seconds = 1 second. But that flash based test site never has the proper ping result. Just ignore that ping part. Better to do a ping from from the cmd line. Start, run, type in, cmd ,then type ping and then a space and a web sites name or IP address. Or do a tracert . by typing tracert and a space instead of ping. Enables you to see what servers are slowing things down to your destination.
