Blip is a browser-based tool that visualizes Internet latency in real time by plotting ping times as blips on a graph. It runs on any device with JavaScript and HTML canvas support, measuring round-trip times and packet loss at up to 100 samples per second.
Use cases
- measure my internet latency in the browser
- diagnose wifi network quality and packet loss
- see how latency changes when streaming video or switching networks
- compare ping times to nearby vs distant servers
- troubleshoot brief network outages that ping misses
- check if my internet connection has low latency without installing software
When to avoid
- you need deep packet inspection or bandwidth/speed testing rather than latency
- you require long-term historical monitoring with alerting and dashboards
- you need to measure latency to arbitrary custom hosts
