Log Ping Response and Timing

[asjones987]

It would be really nice if we cold log the ping response, time in ms, and system time to the log file so one could go back to the and see in the log when things dropped etc. One line per ping

Is it not enough to have the failures logged?

hmmmm interesting idea to log failure.... it might be but the log would almost need to explicitly say all was good till x then failure x then failure y time etc ... the report this worked...

i like the idea as it keeps the log file shorter, but one would need it to say when it was working started good ... A.... failed at B.... worked at C etc... i to like the idea

would be nice if you could add log for next working ping after failure @bp2008

I want to leave the computer on and see later how the ping changes throughout the day, so I can then talk to the ISP about whether their public equipment is working good enough. Drops do not necessarily happen, but how do I keep track of which hour is the busiest?

how do I keep track of which hour is the busiest?

The way I'd do it is just scroll back quickly and see which time periods stick out as having unusually high latency or jitter.

If you want more detailed logging to a file, I suggest PingInfoView from Nirsoft.
