PingViz

Introduction

What is it

PingViz an application to visualize small scale network latency on a home network.

After fighting with my cable company I wrote this to monitor the first 5 to 10 hops from my network out to theirs so I would have ammunition to get them to fix the issues that kept popping up.

Why use it

Its easy! A single binary and a config is all you need. Knowledge is power!

No really, if you need it you already know it.

Installation

Download the build artifact off of gitlab (http://gitlab.com/Khabi/pingviz/), create a config file and start it up. Better install directions along with service files coming soon!
