    Hi,

    I want to be able to Monitor my DSL remotely. I want to be able to pull reports on uptime, downtime, utilisation etc. I don't want to have to buy software. Ideally I would like to be able to write a ping script etc. I know it's not going to be straightforward but is there anyone on here who can help or at least point me in right direction !

    The reports are all logged and viewable on the website, but it is also possible to export these as .CSV
    Free version gives you one check and 20 SMS alerts, which is useful for testing with. Additional checks cost per month, but the subscriptions are pretty reasonable.

    EDIT: To answer your first post, you could write a simple batch file which would export the output of a "ping xxx.com -t" command to a log file. Then you could import the data to an Excel sheet with macros which would filter the data in columns and whatnot.
