blocking an ICMP Ping
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 your Router's security level�
To turn off the ping response, select "Block ICMP Ping" (1) and click "Apply
Changes"� The Router will not respond to an ICMP ping�
