Internet Health
	Ping can be used to give an indication of Internet Health from GSP's perspective. This is not an indication that one ISP is superior to another. This ping analysis times how long it takes a message (packet) to go from a Northern Virginia facility to another location on the Internet and back. The graph below shows the average ping result (from 50 samples) for the past 24 hours. This ping analysis is conducted once every hour and takes about one minute to complete. To see the raw data (ping min/avg/max from 50 samples) that was recorded for the past 24 hours, click on one of these ISPs:  Name   Location Tested   24 Hour   Moving Average    Cogent Communications   auth1.dns.cogentco.com   1.228 ms    Level 3 Communications   ns2.l3.net   5.973 ms    AT&T Services   www.att.com   1.833 ms    CenturyLink   authns1.centurylink.net   21.351 ms  Last Revised: 21 Nov 2024 at 01:11 AM EST
