Other Options

• Ping Test: To check whether a computer is connected to the Internet or to your LAN, enter its host
name or IP address, then click Ping ("Packet Internet Groper"). If the computer is currently connected
to the Internet (or to your LAN) you will see a verification message (unless that computer is set to
deny Ping queries; see below).
• WAN Ping: (Default Deny) This option instructs your network to ignore Ping queries, to protect
against unauthorized access by others outside your network. You should leave this option set to Deny
unless instructed to do otherwise by your network administrator.
• VPN Pass-Through: (Default On) The router supports VPN (Virtual Private Network) pass-through for
both PPTP (Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol) and IPSec (IP Security). Turning both of these On pre-
vents your router from blocking access to another network you may wish to use.
