This is with `ping -i .25 192.168.1.1` > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=743 ttl=64 time=1.595 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=765 ttl=64 time=1.696 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=771 ttl=64 time=3.118 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=772 ttl=64 time=1.573 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=778 ttl=64 time=1.796 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=779 ttl=64 time=9222.495 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=780 ttl=64 time=8967.619 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=781 ttl=64 time=8701.003 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=782 ttl=64 time=8434.659 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=865 ttl=64 time=2.744 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=871 ttl=64 time=1.548 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=872 ttl=64 time=4.107 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=873 ttl=64 time=1.570 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=876 ttl=64 time=1.534 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=900 ttl=64 time=1.530 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=903 ttl=64 time=1.520 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=904 ttl=64 time=6964.209 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=905 ttl=64 time=6697.696 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=906 ttl=64 time=7045.536 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=907 ttl=64 time=6790.528 ms > 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=908 ttl=64 time=6524.030 ms It'll be very stable, ping times of less than 2ms, then dropped packets and jumping up to high ping times. My messages file doesn't report anything noticeable other than losing network and regaining.
