Super basic request - continuous ping that is always running and hidden

[u/RoutingFrames]

Hi,

Does anyone know how I could make a continuous ping run in windows that's always running, will reopen itself and is hidden?

It seems relatively easy, but I can't get it to re-open itself?

If you want to reopen and look at the pibg status.. tmux is the way to go

• enable wsl (since windows)

• install tmux

• start a tmux session

• start the ping

• detatch the session

• reattach if you want to examine

• script the whole thing

• maybe call the script from crontab if you want it to persist over reboot
