Ping is a command you can use to check whether your PC can recognize other computers on your network and the Internet. A ping command sends a message to the computer you specify. If the computer receives the message, it sends messages in reply. To use it, you must know the IP address of the computer with which you are trying to communicate.

On Windows-based computers, you can execute a ping command from the Start menu. Click the [Start] button, and then click [Run]. In the Open text box, type a statement such as the following: ping 192.168.1.1.

Click [OK]. You can substitute any private IP address on your LAN or a public IP address for an Internet site, if known.

If the target computer receives the message, a [Command Prompt] window appears like that shown in Figure 62:
