Max rtt and Min rtt values frequently equal - why?

[Keith Christian <keith1christian () gmail com>]

I've had a nagging question ever since I started using Nping.

Why are the "Max rtt:" and "Min rtt:" values are frequently equal
(e.g. 1001 ms, below?)

  If that's normal, is there a logical explanation?

Currently running Nping 0.5.35DC1, on Windows XP SP3.

Max rtt: 1001.000ms | Min rtt: 1001.000ms | Avg rtt: 368.999ms
Raw packets sent: 5 (210B) | Rcvd: 5 (230B) | Lost: 0 (0.00%)
Tx time: 4.08200s | Tx bytes/s: 51.45 | Tx pkts/s: 1.22
Rx time: 5.08300s | Rx bytes/s: 45.25 | Rx pkts/s: 0.98
Nping done: 1 IP address pinged in 5.16 seconds


Thanks.
