Ping test tools ?

[johnpau80]

Hi guys,

I had brought LINKSYS WRT300N for testing in my office.

quick questions:

1) Are there any tools which can monitor the connectivity
between the laptop and wireless router over a period of time. ?

Lets say I have a laptop which works on wireless through
a wireless router, I wanted some service or tool which can run on my laptop and do a continous ping to the router address and give a report at the end of the day as how many times it got disconnected.

--Thanks

we use fluke optiview server software to do monitoring like that.. but its not free...

the only other monitoring software I can think of is IPsentry. that may have a "trial version" but I'm not sure.

You could just do a continous ping. "Ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -t" at the end of the day do a CTL C and it will give you the number of missed pings
