Using PingPlotter

Quality Score Definitions

A Quality Score Definition determines the point at which a network connection is no longer suitable to perform a specific task, such as Voice-over-IP calling. It combines the Latency, Jitter, and Packet Loss of each sample to determine if the signal was Good, Fair, or Poor. Insights displays these results as a percentage of time in the Signal Quality Summary.

LiveShare

LiveShare links allow permitted users to share web links to live-updating PingPlotter results. The LiveShare link will include any components (Timeline Graphs, Insights, Focus Period, etc.) you have open when the link is created. This allows you to easily share the data and have something concrete that both parties are able to look at and talk about.
