Network Diagnostics Made Simple
WinMTR combines ping and traceroute into one powerful tool. Monitor packet loss, latency, and network routes in real-time—no installation required.
WinMTR is a free, open-source Windows application that continuously sends packets to a target host, tracking every network hop along the way. Unlike running ping and traceroute separately, WinMTR shows both in real-time, updating live as data flows through your network.
Originally created in 2000 by Vasile Laurentiu Stanimir as a Windows clone of Matt's Traceroute (MTR) for Linux/UNIX, WinMTR has become a trusted diagnostic tool used by network administrators, ISP support teams, and everyday users troubleshooting connectivity issues.
The tool is completely portable—just extract and run. No installation, no admin rights required, no configuration needed.
Lightweight, powerful, and designed to give you answers fast.
Watch network performance live as WinMTR continuously probes your route, updating packet loss and latency statistics every second.
Instantly identify exactly where data packets are being dropped along your network path, from your router to the destination.
See best, worst, and average response times at each hop. Quickly spot which network segment is causing slowdowns.
Copy results to clipboard or export as text/HTML. Share detailed diagnostics with your ISP or support team in one click.
Fully portable—extract the ZIP and run. No setup wizards, no admin privileges, no registry changes. Works on any Windows PC.
Prefer the terminal? WinMTR offers full command-line support for scripting, automation, and advanced diagnostics.
Up and running in under a minute.
Download the ZIP file, extract it anywhere. Choose the 32-bit or 64-bit version for your system.
Double-click WinMTR.exe. No installation needed—it launches instantly.
Type a domain name or IP address (e.g., github.com) and click Start.
Let it run for 1-2 minutes. Export results via Copy or Export buttons to share with support.

What each column tells you about your network.
Each row represents one hop—a router or server between you and the destination. Lower numbers are closer to you; the last hop is your target.
Percentage of packets that failed to return from this hop. 0-1% is normal. Consistent >5% loss indicates a problem at that point.
Round-trip time in milliseconds. Avg is most useful. Large jumps between hops or high Worst values suggest congestion.
Shows both IP address and hostname (if resolvable). Helps identify if the problem is your router, ISP, or a third-party network.
Total packets sent and received at each hop. More packets = more accurate statistics. Run tests for at least 1-2 minutes for reliable data.
Some hops show "No response" or timeouts. This is normal—many routers are configured to ignore ICMP. Focus on hops that do respond.
: Fixed several other minor bugs present in the original 0.24 Survival Test. Minecraft Wiki Core Survival Mechanics (introduced in 0.24) was a patch, it inherited the massive changes from the base Inventory & Resources
To understand the significance of Survival Test 03, one must look at the landscape of Minecraft's development in late 2009. Prior to this era, Minecraft was strictly a creative sandbox. Players spawned into small, finite worlds with infinite blocks, utilizing the game purely as a digital Lego set.
In the landscape of software preservation, distinguishing between 0.24, 0.24_01, and 0.24_03 is a challenge of forensics.
This version solidified the transition to survival by introducing essential indicators and consequences for the player: Health & Fall Damage : A health bar was added, and players now received damage from falling
While not fully featured, it allowed basic item management.
: A bug that allowed players to copy blocks directly into their hotbar was removed. General Stability
: With no hunger bar or cooking, players healed by eating brown mushrooms, which could be obtained by killing pigs or sheep.
Survival Test 03 was defined by its chaotic mob AI. This era featured early versions of iconic monsters, though they behaved much differently than they do today:
The world generator was very different back then. The maps were small and had hard borders. There was no sun or moon, so it was always daytime. However, monsters would still spawn everywhere.
: Survival was brutal; the only way to heal was by consuming mushrooms . Brown mushrooms provided health, while red mushrooms were toxic and would hurt the player. Players could obtain these by finding them in caves or as drops from killing pigs and sheep.
Before Minecraft became the polished, expansive sandbox giant it is today, it went through a period of frantic, rapid-fire experimentation. In late 2009, Markus "Notch" Persson was transitioning the game from a simple, creative building tool ("Classic") into something with stakes, enemies, and a reason to build: .
, if a Creeper exploded in water, it would create an infinite water source block.
It solidified that monsters should be dangerous, spawning frequently at night.
: Players spawned with a starting inventory of 10 TNT blocks. They could not be replenished, and left-clicking them caused an immediate detonation. Bug Fixes in Version 0.24_SURVIVAL_TEST_03
This specific update made the game stable enough to play. Here is what was inside:
Because there is no crafting, health management is savage:
