Ping monitoring program
I'm looking for a tool that I can use to monitor my ping time to a gaming server in real time. I've been getting lag spikes and want to watch where they are happening, how often, etc. I'm very new to Ubuntu and Linux so any help is great. thank you
ping network-monitoring

Hi @SYN, note that while that link:olivermarshall.net/install-smokeping-on-ubuntu-14-04 might provide the relevant information, links can get taken down at any moment, maybe you should edit your answer to include the important information from that link?

Just open a terminal window from the Unity launcher, then in that window, type ping followed by the name of the site you wish to monitor.
Example: ping www.ebay.com
Use a control-c to stop the pings.

Try the mtr (or mtr-tiny) package, it contains the mtr command that continually displays in a terminal the routes and the latest ping times on each router:
