@bcopeland. Hi I am not getting good data returned, just all 0's. I am running 2.2.7.126.

Returned Example:
PingData(rttAvg: 0.0, rttMin: 0.0, rttMax: 0.0, packetsTransmitted: 0, packetsReceived: 0, packetLoss: 0)

Code --------

def CheckDevice() {

hubitat.helper.NetworkUtils.PingData pingData = hubitat.helper.NetworkUtils.ping("192.168.1.1", 5)

log.info pingData

}

It worked initially, but since about 2.2.7.121 if the destination does not respond it returns all zeros - just coded around it in my driver ([Release] Hubitat Ping)
