Whether you're a user of an ASP, an online gamer, a VoIP user, user of some other network/Internet application or an administrator, at some point it's likely you'll encounter problems with your network or Internet connection(s). PingPlotter helps you pinpoint where the problems are in an intuitive graphical way, and to continue monitoring your connection long-term to further identify issues.
PingPlotter offers some unique value for network monitoring and troubleshooting:
Graphically display performance metrics about the route your data takes to a server.
Monitor network performance over time, capturing the moments when problems surface.
Zoom in on a problem period and construct a compelling case to have someone help you solve a problem.
Get notified when there is a network problem.
Save data or images, and send to others for review.
Troubleshoot without having to call your ISP, allowing you to know about problems before they do.
PingPlotter Pro V3.15p beta 3
Changes since version 3.15p beta 2
Upgraded to latest component versions for a number of components, plus the latest compiler version. Fixes a good handful of bugs.
Fixed bug in alert system where alerts wouldn't *stop* firing (once they started), and also would sometimes not fire at all.
Improvements in a number of areas when running large fonts.
Install is now code-signed, so running the installer correctly shows "Nessoft, LLC" instead of "Unknown Publisher".
Now tells Windows Vista that it knows about Vista, which makes directory handling better (especially of the \Program Files directory, which is read-only under Vista). The downside of this change is that you'll need to re-enter your license key, but your current license key will work just fine. If you can't remember your key, go to our support page and have it mailed to you.
Install on Pro version wasn't stopping the service on a re-install. Also, uninstalling would leave the service in place.
If ICMP.DLL wasn't available on the system, PingPlotter would crash with a cryptic message on startup.
XML Encoding wasn't specified on the AJAX web server, which would cause errors in some web browsers / configurations.
Auto-save service filenames could have invalid characters, which would block saving.
Long DNS names would make the left pane on the web interface pretty messy.
XML parsing not as robust as necessary on the AJAX server. The error handler also didn't always show the full error.
Starting hop wasn't loaded correctly when restarting.
The default summary graph was too narrow for the web interface.
Ajax web interface required right-clicking, which isn't available on the iPhone. Now detects the iPhone and clicking the hop column now brings up the menu.
Small updates to help file.
In IE 6, the web interface buttons would sometimes show up in the wrong spot.
Updated "Trace from remote server" core components to (hopefully) fix a problem where communication between PingPlotter and the remote agent would start timing out (inexplicably) and never recover.
Fixed problem with taskbar handling under Windows 98 - would sometimes show two entries for PingPlotter.
