NetPinger

NetPinger is a network tool that enables you to monitor hosts, in order to test the connectivity strength between the computers by sending the ping command. It retrieves a wide range of useful statistics that should give you a helping hand if you want to resolve troubleshooting issues, for instance.

No setup required, besides .NET Framework

The program's wrapped in two files that can be saved anywhere on the disk or a USB flash drive, in order to directly launch NetPinger on any machine. However, you must have .NET Framework installed. On the other hand, it doesn't make any changes to the Windows registry settings.

Manage hosts to send pings

It runs in the systray, providing quick access to its main panel. This has a simple look and well-structured layout, where you can add as many hosts as you want to ping at the same time. Required information includes the host name, IP address, description, timeout, interval, DNS query interval, recent history depth, number of pings before death, buffer size, and TTL. It's also possible to resolve the host and to prevent fragmentation.
Once the ping command is sent, the application starts recording statistics, so you can check out the amount of sent and received packets, received and lost packets (percent), whether the last packet was lost or received, and other details.

Customize application preferences

Furthermore, you can clear all information, stop sending the pinging command, edit host properties, remove any host from the list, as well as save the hosts. When it comes to general program settings, you can customize the types of columns to display, as well as ask the tool to autorun at every Windows startup until told otherwise, show error messages, clear times by default, and begin pinging automatically at startup.

Evaluation and conclusion

Although it hasn't been updated for a while, it worked smoothly on newer Windows in our tests. It carried out ping tasks without any issues, returning accurate statistics.
Bottom line is that NetPinger offers a simple solution for sending pings to multiple hosts at a time.
