NitroPing is a Windows service designed to route game traffic around ISP congestion and provide a cleaner path to game servers. It carries game traffic through encrypted UDP tunnels on port 443 and offers relay locations across major player regions. Smart pathing seeks cleaner routes when ISP routing is unstable, while packet duplication is intended to smooth jitter spikes on inconsistent links. NitroPing can reroute traffic automatically if a relay path degrades during a match, and users can select regions and tune routes separately for each game. The service says it redirects game internet traffic at the Windows networking layer without reading or writing game files, accessing game memory or injecting into games. It lists Windows 10/11, but currently describes the product as coming soon and offers a waitlist for updates. A three-day trial costs nothing initially, then renews at $49.99/year; annual billing is $49.99/year, and monthly billing is $6.99 per month. Plans include all server regions, unlimited bandwidth, optimized routing, a kill switch and auto-connect; paid plans also include priority support. Active connections are limited to one device at a time.
