PINGWIZ

PINGWIZ is a command-line utility made to extend the functionality of the built-in Windows ping tool for IPv4 addresses. The extra feature is that it displays the date and time associated with each ping reply.

The switch is PINGWIZ target_name [/w:seconds] [/n:count ] [/b:bytes] [/t] [/?]

It's possible to specify the host name or IP address of the computer you're trying to reach (target_name), define the timeout in seconds in order to wait for each ping reply (/w:seconds), establish the number of echo requests and amount of bytes to send (/n:count and /b:bytes), as well as instruct the program to continuously ping the specified host until stopped (/t).

You can hit the Ctrl+C key combination to view statistics and continue, as well as hit it again to stop the pings. The usage controls can be listed with /? or by not entering any parameters (just PINGWIZ.exe). However, there is no switch implemented for dumping the statistics to file.

A couple of examples are provided to help you learn the controls faster. Please not that it must be launched in a console window with administrative privileges on Windows 8 and later.
