Helium Pinger is a free, portable ping tool with multithread technology for pinging, DNS and reverse DNS support, single traceRoute, and more.

Helium Pinger is a staple of ping tools that's been around for a long time but not updated in many years, but it still runs on Windows 10.

Helium Pinger can be easy to use, like similar tools, but goes above and beyond what most ping tools can do. Where do we start? There are numerous settings and options including input, output, IP generator, setup and traceroutes. Each of these includes numerous settings.

Optionally, you can list by a grid, big icons, small icons, or details not at all dissimilar to Windows Explorer view options.

Helium Pinger is, without a doubt, the nerd's ping tool. Anyone can use it, but we think IT and server admins will find it most useful.
