I was actually planning on setting up both of these to compare the results: http://freshmeat.net/projects/mrtg-ping-probe/?topic_id=152
http://sourceforge.net/projects/wnrtool/ Anyone try these?

Every once in a while I'll run across someone who has excellent MRTG charts (RSSI and linkQ), but their connection speed sucks. I'll play around with their setup and will occasionally see something like they can't take pings > 500 bytes or something like that. The last time it happened, Customer rebooted his CPE to no avail. I reset the AP and it went away. Thankfully it didn't require a truckroll. Is there some kind of tool out there that can accept a list (db?) of IP addresses and then at preset times of the day, will ping each IP on the list with varying sized packets in order to measure the quality of the connection and then record the results? Something like that would be an excellent compliment to MRTG. I suppose it wouldn't be too terribly difficult to write one, but...ahhh.. who has the time? (but one of these days I know I will!!)
