There is PRTG but last I check only give you 10 (free) sensors. So can only monitor one or two host at best. Last I used it many moons ago it was a very complex product to setup & use.
Also try https://mikrotik.com/thedude. Never used it but have heard of it.
PRTG 100 is now free. That means 100 free sensors.

Only runs from router hardware last I knew.

Hey folks, thanks for all the replies, I'll check out the Dude, I reckon I looked at that a few years ago for some reason, can't remember anything about it except the name.
You guys are too literal, I already Windows hosts I can run this free monitoring tool on, so I won't be purchasing Windows to run this thing.
It's also for office people to glance at, should they receive a call from Office X saying they can't reach server B at location C. The idea is that the office person can look at a screen and see that server B is either down, or the whole site is down or multiple sites are down.
I guess I just need connectivity monitoring that displays red green and yellow.

Multiple ping sessions could solve that...

I've used that one a time or two. I don't know why I didn't think of it!
