I recently started using the PingPlotter network monitoring software and find it quite useful for keeping long term data in graph format of my packet loss with Comcast.
http://www.pingplotter.com/ <http://www.pingplotter.com/> The Free version does not provide long term monitoring. The Standard version is reasonably priced (around $30 I think) but the 30 day trial is fully functional. I do not know how it would work with remote station hosts, if they behave like a normal server or not. But if not one could still use it to track problems that are at the first few hops by monitoring other servers like google etc. You can display graphs for each hop in the path to the server. It is much easier to use than manual trace route and ping tests to each hop. Almost all of my packet loss is at hop #2 which is the first node past my router. -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/How-reliable-an-internet-connection-is-needed-for-A-K3-remote-to-work-well-tp7591154p7591574.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
