code:

ping -c 20 www.google.co.uk | grep "36.0"

works fine

code:

ping -c 20 www.google.co.uk > ping.txt

works fine

but

code:

ping -c 20 www.google.co.uk | grep "36.0" > ping.txt

doesn't work (well not me!). seen lots of examples offered up. suggestions?

what mean "doesn't work"? trying catch "36.0"? part of address? response time?
