IP Utilities for diagnostic

Ping
Ping is a simple command and easy way to check remote PC or device on your network and
the Internet. Besides, this is a command supported in most of IP-based network operation
system like Windows, Linux and so on. To use it, you must know the IP address of the PC or
device which you like to send a message to. If the remote PC or device gets this message, the
PC or device will send back a message in reply. If you saw the reply, you know the
communication link to remote PC or device is OK. In Windows system, you can execute a ping
command from the Start menu by clicking the Start button, and then clicking Run and then
enter below statement in the open box: (the 192.168.1.1 is an IP address which you like to
check the device is on line or not.)

Click OK.
If the communication link is OK, you will see the message and a Command Prompt window is
displayed as an example:
If not, you will receive the message Request timed out.
You could also use this ping tool to verify the Internet connection by entering an external
address, such as www.yahoo.com. If you do not know the IP address of a particular Internet
location, you can use the nslookup command as described in the following section.
Please be noted that some of PCs or devices may reject to reply message requesting by ping
command. At that time, you won't get message in reply, but message timeout.

Nslookup

or Netscape Navigator or other browsers.
