Live check from outside your network

Is it down, or is it just you?

Paste any web address. Farping requests it from our server, tries it from your browser too, and tells you what came back in plain words.

A domain or a full link, for example shop.example.com/cart

    Reading a result

    Three answers, each with a shape as well as a colour

    Every check ends in one of these, followed by the details: the status code, how long it took, where redirects led and when the certificate runs out.

    • UpThe site answered normally. If it still fails for you, the problem is probably nearer to you.
    • ProblemA server answered, but with an error, a refusal or a broken certificate.
    • UnreachableNo answer at all: the name did not resolve, the connection failed or it timed out.

    Why two vantage points

    “Down” depends on where you stand

    1. We ask from the outside

      Our server sends one normal web request to the address, follows any redirects and times the reply.

    2. Your browser asks too

      At the same moment, your own browser quietly tries the same site over your Wi-Fi or mobile data.

    3. We compare the two

      Up for us but not for you points at your network. Down for both points at the site. The result says which.
