Netopia Router PN Series - Manual (Page 209)

Utilities and Tests 10-5
Packets Out: The number of packets sent by the Ping test.
Packets In: The number of return packets received from the target
host. To be considered “on time,” return packets are expected back
before the next packet in the sequence of Ping packets is sent. A
count of the number of late packets appears in parentheses to the
right of the Packets In count.
In the example below, a Netopia Router is sending Ping packets to
another host, which responds with return Ping packets. Note that
the second return Ping packet is considered to be late because it is
not received by the Netopia Router before the third Ping packet is
sent. The first and third return Ping packets are on time.
