Manage The Ping Heatmap Settings - NETGEAR Nighthawk Pro XR1000 User Manual

The ping history pane shows the current and historical ping times for the server. The
pane shows the average ping time, indicated by the dotted line, and the current
ping time, indicated by a white arrow at the right.
You can select a time span from the Slider Timespan menu to the right below the
ping history pane and move the slider below the pane to view a specific period
within the selected time span. Doing so lets you compare the pings to the specific
server over time.
