HostDime provides you with the same transparency that customers on our network directly receive.<\/p>\n<p>To run a test, it&#8217;s three quick steps. First, pick the source. HostDime has data centers in Orlando, Los Angeles, Joao Pessoa, Sao Paulo, New Delhi, London, Rotterdam, and Guadalajara. After that, select a test type between &#8220;host&#8221;, &#8220;ping&#8221;, &#8220;traceroute&#8221;, or &#8220;mtr&#8221;, which is the combination of traceroute and ping. Then simply enter your destination IP or paste your IP, and click &#8220;run test&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><center><\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostdime.com\/facilities\/network-tools\/\">HostDime Speed Test<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Want to see how fast our network is?
