You should see a message like this one:

If the path is not working, you see this message:
Request timed out
If the path is not working correctly, you could have one of the following problems:
• Wrong physical connections
- Make sure that the LAN port LED is on. If the LED is off, follow the instructions in
Connect to the Internet
- Check that the corresponding link LEDs are on for your network interface card and
for the hub ports (if any) that are connected to your workstation and router.
• Wrong network configuration
- Verify that the Ethernet card driver software and TCP/IP software are both
installed and configured on your computer or workstation.
- Verify that the IP address for your router and your workstation are correct and that
the addresses are on the same subnet.

Test the Path from Your Computer to a Remote Device

After verifying that the LAN path works correctly, test the path from your computer to a remote
device.
1. From the Windows toolbar, click the Start button, and select Run.
2. In the Windows Run window, type:
ping -n 10 IP address
where IP address is the IP address of a remote device such as your ISP's DNS server.
If the path is functioning correctly, replies as in the previous section are displayed. If you do
not receive replies:
• Check that your computer has the IP address of your router listed as the default router. If
the IP configuration of your computer is assigned by DHCP, this information is not visible
in your computer's Network Control Panel. Verify that the IP address of the router is listed
as the default router.
• Make sure that the network address of your computer (the portion of the IP address
specified by the netmask) is different from the network address of the remote device.
• Check that your cable or DSL modem is connected and functioning.
