Well Mahnaz, I recommend using a really cool free easy to use program called Pingplotter. You can ping ip addresses to your heart's content and it will create excellent graphs to show latency and uptime etc.

Just google Pingplotter and you'll find it.

Quick and dirty:

open a command prompt in a folder. Use the following command:
ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -t >ping.txt
this will run a continuous ping and output to a text file
