network monitoring/logging software

[Zoloft]

As of late, my internet has been getting worse and worse. As it's provided by my apartment complex, me getting on the phone to complain with the ISP I have been talking with the IT person with the apartment complex (offsite) and he has asked me to document these frequent slows and drops. I am certainly at my computer a lot, but not so much ( I work, I sleep, I eat etc), that I can keep a real time tally of every time the connection speed drops to nothing, and for how long.

Can anyone suggest any software that will simply monitor the connection and log the results over an extended period of time, ie, an always running speedtest, but something passively, so it wont actually slow down activities that are running during that time.

Thanks as always!

Hi Zoloft, welcome to 7F!

My apologies that no one has come to your aid. Do you need further assistance?

You may want to try PsPing, PsGetSid, or Portmon for Windows

There is an indexed list here: Sysinternals Utilities

There are also Network tools here: Network Monitoring and Inventory Tools Package some users flinch when they use Nirsoft because of false positives, but I use them and haven't had a problem. See second FAQ down: Frequently Asked Questions
