Ping Test

Ping Test

Ping is a connectivity test of whether a remote machine is powered on and has an active network interface. It works by sending a small "packet" of data to a server to see if you get a response. The Ping program shows, in milliseconds, how fast the server "replied" to your Ping. It also shows if you lose any packets or "timeout" before receiving the reply from the server. The RTT ( Round Trip Time) is shown in ms (milliseconds) and anything under 100 is very good, up to 400 are typical, over 400 can indicate a problem but can be due to attempting to ping a distant site, say in Australia

How To Ping

In Win95/98/ME go to Start/ Run/ type “command” click OK.
In Win 2000/NT go to Start/ Run/ type “cmd” click OK.
This brings up the command prompt window.
Type “ping ***.***.***.***” ( the IP address you want to test connectivity to)
If successful it will return as per example

If unsuccessful it will return as per example
C:\>ping 212.38.173.200
Pinging 212.38.173.200 with 32 bytes of data
"reply from 212.38.173.4: Destination host unreachable.""reply from 212.38.173.4: Destination host unreachable.""reply from 212.38.173.4: Destination host unreachable.""reply from 212.38.173.4: Destination host unreachable."
Or
"request timed out.""request timed out.""request timed out.""request timed out."
This tells us whether or not the user traffic is able to get through to the target IP address and allows us to troubleshoot connection problems

Netgear Setup DG-834

Netgear Setup DG-834

The router has a default IP address of 192.168.0.1, and browsing to http://192.168.0.1 over the network connection accesses the web configuration. The first thing the router will ask for is a username and password - which are admin and password. The recommended way to configure the router is via the set-up wizard.

Pressing the Next button results in the router auto detecting a PPPoA connection and determining the standard VPI/VCI of 0/38. At this point the hardest part of the set-up is typing in your username and password. There is an Idle Timeout field which by default is set to five. Unless you want the connection dropping out on you a lot then it is recommended to set a value of zero in this field.

Enter your ISP username and password I cannot see how it can be made much easier. The Test button will launch a pop-up browser window, which if everything is working will browse to http://www.netgear.com as a confidence check that everything is working. To store the settings simply click Apply.
