Sometimes ping won’t even help notice that though, I’ve had instances where I was trying to diagnose why a home network connection kept freezing, and when running ping, it would freeze but then continue after 10 seconds, without erroring out or giving the normal ‘destination host not found’ error, or having really high millisecond response time, etc. I finally had to start running it with timestamps so I could see when the connection was choking, and not updating the ping for 10 seconds at a time.
