well dont depend on the results too much as I'm sure you already know pings are the last prority to a router so if the load is heavy you might not get the results your looking for......
It goes to show. I'm still in learning mode here. Everyday you learn something new. Maybe if I explain what I'm trying to do it would help.
Right now. I have my gateway ip for my local network & ping it every 5sec & check it's lag time. Then I have my sat gate & do the same. Third, I have ns1.minspring.com It's an ip that I know never changes & name stays the same. I'm trying to get a feel for traffic. Is there a better why of monitoring this. I put all of this in winpulse(great app) It shows me a nice quick display of all the stats.
