Publisher's description of LateRoute

From DNSstuff.com:

LateRoute measures the latency of your Internet connection, which is one of the two components that make up the speed of your connection (the other being bandwidth). Latency is how long it takes packets to get from your computer to other computers on the Internet (the lower the better). Measuring latency is important when your Internet connection is slower than normal, if you are into gaming, if you run servers, or if you want to test a new Internet connection. Even if you have a high bandwidth connection, you may have high latency.

Editor's review of LateRoute

This small freeware utility measures the latency of an Internet connection, but expects users to understand the results. LateRoute does not require installation, and the executable opens a small DOS window. To run the program, you have to accept the license agreement, which can be executed with an accept parameter. Executing LateRoute tests your computer's latency. A low latency score indicates your Internet packets move quickly from your computer to other computers. LateRoute indicates your computer's best connection speed and average speeds over the best five and 10 connections. The application occasionally warns users a firewall could slow the latency rating, but no indications are given if speeds are unusually high or low. System administrators, gamers, hosting providers, and other power users will appreciate this freeware's ease of use and small size.
