OverPing lets you continuously monitor the performance of your Internet connection. This is useful if you're on unreliable wifi or Hotspotting while travelling, as it lets you tell at a glance whether your current connectivity problems are your connection's fault or not.

For example, I keep this running while on the train and doing a Hangout or Slack voice chat. When the other side cuts out, I can look at the bars: if they're green, it's their connection that sucks; if they're not green, it's my connection.

Before OverPing, I would always have a Terminal window open on every desktop just doing ping 8.8.8.8. OverPing does this, but on every desktop, and with a pretty, animated bar graph. Each pixel represents one millisecond of delay in getting information to and from Internet.

1. Download the latest OverPing release
2. Unzip and drag it to your Applications folder (or wherever)
3. Double click to launch. Maybe add to your login items? :)

There are no configuration options.
