[Net.NetworkInformation.Ping]::New().SendPingAsync() - too fast?

[localpct]

So I was doing some testing on how to get the fastest, ping return on machines
as we know, test-connection has a three second delay if the PC isn't found

So in comes [Net.NetworkInformation.Ping]::New().SendPingAsync()

I have found it likes to give me false statements, such as, a PC in California, will ping fine, then the next time it doesn't. It will say it cannot find it. Run it again, finds it. I thought it was because I was on VPN this weekend, but now I'm wired still having the same issues.

This is my script, super easy

Code: [Select all] [Expand/Collapse] [Download] (Untitled.ps1)

1. foreach ($D in $DNS)
2. {
3.     $ping = [Net.NetworkInformation.Ping]::New().SendPingAsync("$server.$D",250) | Where-Object {$_.Result.Status -eq 'Success'}
4.     if($ping){
5.     "$server.$suffix".toupper();
6.   break
7. }
8. else{
9. }
10. }

This is not a scripting issue. It sounds like your DNS servers have issues.

that is an answer I can live with. I also had this issue with Asynchronous Network Ping
