5.4.1Ping Test

Once you have your ADSL Router configured, ensure you can ping the network. You can access the Ping Test page by clicking on the “here” hyperlink in Diagnostic Page. Type the target address that you want to ping. If your PC is connected to the ADSL Router via the default DHCP configuration, you should be able to Ping the network address 192.168.1.1. See Fig 1-11.If your ISP has provided their server address, try to ping the address. If the pings for both the WAN and the LAN sides are complete and you have the proper protocols configured, you should be able to surf the Internet. By default when you select ping test, the ADSL Router will ping itself 3 times. The ADSL Router passed the Ping test; this basically means that the TCP/IP protocol is up and running. If this first Ping test does not pass, the TCP/IP protocol is not loaded for some reason; you should restart the ADSL Router.
