PacketProbe - Network diagnostics that don't suck.

Hey Product Hunt! I'm Patrick, and I've been gaming online since the 90s (StarCraft, Ultima Online, and so many others). If you've ever rage-quit because of rubber-banding in a ranked match, we've already got something in common. By day, I work in IoT and WiFi systems. I've launched all kinds of smart home devices for big-name brands that you can buy at Best Buy, Target, and more. Most recently, I've worked on WiFi platforms for ISPs that connect tens of millions of homes globally. I've seen firsthand how hard it is to diagnose what's actually wrong with a network connection, even for people who do this professionally. Most "packet loss tests" online are either ancient Java applets, paywalled, or just glorified ping commands. I wanted something I'd actually use myself that's fast, visual, and honest about what's happening on your connection. The truth is that sometimes it takes some configuration to get your connection dialed in, and the tools to validate everything are tough to find - whether it's gaming, self-hosting, or making sure your home office is rock solid. So I built PacketProbe: -- Packet loss test with real-time tunnel visualization where you can literally see packets drop -- Port checker with one-tap security scanning and game-specific presets to help see if your setup is working externally (and keep you safe) -- IP and connection details powered by Cloudflare's edge network Everything runs in your browser. No downloads, no accounts, no API limits. The port checker can only scan YOUR IP (enforced at the TCP socket level by Cloudflare) so it can't be abused. I built this for gamers, self-hosters, and anyone who's ever had to prove to their ISP that yes, the connection actually is dropping packets. Would love your feedback, including what else would be helpful to add.
