Monitoring your GridGammon Network Connection

Network lag is an unfortunate fact of life on the Internet. GridGammon Backgammon provides a simple way to monitor the health of your connection to the GridGammon server.

The Network toolbar icon, which you can include in your Lobby and/or Board windows, provides a blue bar indicating the quality of your connection. This information is updated every ten seconds while you are connected to GridGammon.

If you hover your mouse over the blue bar for a few seconds, the tooltip will display the actual roundtrip time in milliseconds.
