BTW, someone is bound to ask why the system shows 0ms in the first test.... that happens to be what VB.Net reports when a ping times-out (right now I have it configured to treat timeouts as 999ms for purposes of averaging). I considered changing the display to show 999 or "timeout", but then I thought about how the clients might get "upset" if they see that sort of test result, so I just left it as displaying 0ms. It's fairly easy change if anyone thinks it should be changed.

I thought I'd put something together to be used as a "user check" program. It's fully functional now, but I need to build an ini file reader to hold each ISP's individualized settings I'll probably knock that out on Tuesday. then I'll try to publish it. If anyone sees something they would like changed/added, let me know.

I had the thought today that it would be really cool to have a simple program people could download on their PC and then run that would do things like: (1) Ping to our backbone router via IP address (showing latency results as well) (2) Ping our main DNS servers via IP address (3) Ping a domain name (4) Ping our main email server (5) Ping the customers default gateway (6) Show their configured IP address (both on the machine and on the Internet) (7) Speed test to our backbone (maybe just FTP a file from a local server and compute the time vs. file size?) (8) One additional button that would send all the results via email to whatever email address they put in. It would need to be a nice, pretty interface with a single button that says "Start". Then the results could show a Green Light for each item that was OK or a Red Light if there is a problem. It would also be nice to have your company Logo and phone number on the interface. Is anyone up for this task? I would be willing to pay to have something written, unless there is already something close out there?
