Hi guys, I need help about what does mean and how works peers.  I like know more information about this topic for developing.

I like know more about "Node/Service", "User Agent", and "Ping Time". What is their function in the wallet And what is their use with blockchain new bocks.


Thanks for your helping) :) :)

I'm not sure what you're asking here, if your native language isn't english then if you look at local board then you can probably find your language there and find more appropriate answers to your queries.

However, peers are other computers that are connected to yours via a network if that's what you mean by peers. They're just other computer who hold the blockchaind and function to send you the correct blocks for you to be able to sync with the network and view the bitcoins you have (And then control and spend these Bitcoins).

"Ping Time" is merely the time between a request being sent to a node (a packet of data normally) and a response from that node to be recieved by your computer.
I'm not sure what is meant by "node/service" or "user agent".
If you meant "node service" then that is merely hosting anode which is what you already do by running the core client.

My goal is to know what is the reason why the new blocks that are generated in the blockchain there is a difference of different seconds in the reception of these in different wallets. (Sorry for my english I'm dyslexic)

The difference in receiving and accepting blocks is due to network latency and verification time. There isn't anything that can be done to make every single peer instantaneously know about a block the moment it is created; the laws of physics prevents that. It takes time for data to be transmitted and more time for the computer to verify the block. This is all dependent on the hardware of the connected machines and of the internet connection between peers.
