LinkControl vs TCP Ping

LinkControl is an automation application that can be used to control lights, dimmers, motors and other physical devices. This application is essentially a button processing application that needs to be paired with a server component that ultimately controls the physical devices. This application downloads button definitions from the server application and when a button is pressed a button identifier is returned to the server indicating which button was pressed. With that information the server decides the appropriate next step. LinkControl has no knowledge of the overall process as it just handles button definitions and button presses.

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). BOOKMARKS AND HISTORY Save frequently used endpoints, search your recent tests, and revisit saved results without running another test. MADE FOR iPHONE AND iPAD Enjoy a compact interface on iPhone and side-by-side results and maps on larger screens. Whether you’re troubleshooting a connection, checking a server, or comparing regional latency, TCP Ping brings the details into one clear view.
