See your connections more clearly with TCP Ping. Check a hostname or IPv4 address on your chosen port, compare TCP connection latency across 12 locations, and explore the results on an interactive world map. GLOBAL CONNECTION INSIGHTS View connection status, resolved IP addresses, and TCP latency for each location. Select a result or map node to inspect the details. YOUR PORT, YOUR CHOICE Choose from common port presets or enter a custom port to check the service you need. FLEXIBLE DNS OPTIONS Use your system resolver or configure UDP DNS, TCP DNS, DNS over HTTPS (DoH), or DNS over TLS (DoT).

iPerfman measures network performance between your device and a compatible iperf3 server. Run TCP or UDP tests on iPhone, iPad and Mac. The free version allows three tests per day; Pro unlocks unlimited tests and advanced controls. Measure and investigate: - Test upload, download or both directions, with separate results for each direction. - Follow throughput in live charts. View UDP jitter and packet loss, TCP retransmissions, and round-trip time when those measurements are available. - Save completed tests with their configuration and interval results, then rerun a test or review its history. - Choose an IPv4/IPv6 interface when running a server, or listen on all interfaces. Unlock Pro with a monthly or yearly subscription, or a one-time Lifetime purchase. Pro adds unlimited daily tests, advanced iperf3 parameters, comparison of saved results, and full report export. The yearly subscription includes a seven-day free trial for eligible customers. Existing Lifetime purchases remain valid. iPerfman uses iperf3 3.21 through IperfSwift. A compatible server or second device is required for a network test; this is not an internet speed-test service. The Apple TV app uses a separate interface and has a different feature set.
