Is this behavior normal? and how can I fix it?, I already check the network, but everyting seems OK, the odd thing is that after I RESET the computer, the Ping Latency return to normal (LOW). I have other sensors and all have the same behavior.

Can you run a constant ping to see if the time does actually increase? Are all the other sensors ping sensors?

I will leave a ping for a few days, normally it take 4 days for the latency to increase to considerable time. And yes, right now all the sensors are pings, eventually we will add more types of sensors.

Hello;

I left a extended ping in CMD, with the result logged into a .txt file to diferent destinations, and the latency increased from 30 ms to 70 ms. The graph of the sensor in the PRTG represents this increasing result. Does anyone know how to fix/troubleshoot this issue?

Best Regards; AJ

We're talking about an external service here, right?

Both, internal & external, I have sensors to my Default Gateway, google DNS (8.8.8.8) and a remote Router.

Is your network equipment up to date in terms of firmware and device drivers?
