DESCRIPTION

sping is a modern, cross-platform alternative to traditional ping, built in Rust to make network troubleshooting faster, clearer, and more intuitive.

Instead of simply reporting packet replies, sping interprets network context to help identify whether connectivity problems originate from your local network, gateway, internet connection, or destination.

Its interactive terminal interface provides live latency graphs, jitter and packet loss measurements, adaptive spike detection, quality scores, connection trends, and outage tracking.

Key features include:

  • Real-time ICMP and TCP connectivity monitoring
  • Automatic gateway and WAN reachability checks
  • Multi-target monitoring in a single terminal dashboard
  • Latency, jitter, packet loss, and quality scoring
  • Automatic diagnostic findings based on network context
  • Batch monitoring and structured JSON output for automation
  • IPv4 and IPv6 support
  • Native support for Linux, macOS, and Windows

Lightweight, fast, open source, and designed for developers, sysadmins, network engineers, and homelab enthusiasts.

No cloud services, accounts, or background daemons required.

One command. More answers.
