The Ping Test menu allows you to ping any IP address from the Router to test connectivity to the

address. To Ping a device, enter the IP address of the device that you wish to ping into the Ping IP

Address field and click Ping to start the Ping mechanism. The results of the ping will be shown under

the Ping Result heading. The Miscellaneous Configuration menu also allows you to enable IGMP

forwarding. This is Disabled by default. This setting will not allow IGMP (Internet Group

Management Protocol) packets to be forwarded to the LAN. IGMP is used to manage multicasting on

TCP/IP networks, most users will not need to enable this. Some ISPs use IGMP to perform remote

configuration for client devices, such as the Router. If you are unsure, check with your ISP. To enable

IGMP service to the LAN interface, select Enabled and click the Apply button. To force a system

restart click Save and Reboot.
