Internet Connection Center
Are downloads taking too long to load--even with a high-speed connection?
Does your ISP say "It's not our problem?"
PC Pitstop's Internet Connection Center can help.
This is the place to start to diagnose and perhaps fix connection problems for
your home or office system.
Our series of diagnostics will help you determine if
you're getting optimal performance from your connection.
The tools can also help diagnose whether the problem is your modem, your PC,
the site you're visiting or your ISP.

Ping Tests |
|
Our bandwidth test measures both the speed that your
computer can receive data from the Internet and
transmit data to the Internet.
This Flash-based test gives you the opportunity to check your ping time,
download bandwidth, and upload bandwidth from your choice of four
servers, located in Los Angeles, California; Dallas, Texas; Washington,
D.C.; and London, England.
|
PC Pitstop's ping test can help you determine if poor
performance is the result of your computer, your connection,
or Internet congestion.
Our trace route test can show you the path that your
data takes through the Internet to reach a particular site.
