WAN Ping Blocking
Computer hackers use what is known as "pinging" to find potential victims
on the internet� By pinging a specific iP address and receiving a response
from the iP address, a hacker can determine that something of interest
might be there� The router can be set up so it will not respond to an iCMP
ping from the outside� This heightens the level of security of your router�
To turn off the ping response, select "Block iCMP Ping" and click "Apply
Changes"� The router will not respond to an iCMP ping�
