PingerPlot shows where along a network path a connection goes wrong. Like mtr or WinMTR, it finds every router between you and a target and keeps probing all of them, so loss, latency, jitter and a voice-quality score (MOS) build up per hop over minutes or days. A problem shows up at the hop where it starts and every hop after it.
Alerts judge the destination only, so a router that deprioritises ICMP never false-alarms: a banner, a desktop notification, a sound and an optional webhook (Slack, Teams, ntfy, Home Assistant). Route changes are caught within a round, and a map places the public hops.
ICMP needs no admin rights; TCP, UDP and DSCP marking are there too. Sessions save, reopen and compare, and a headless runner monitors from a server. Windows: installer or portable zip with signed updates. Linux: pipx.
