Ping keeps timing out
I am trying to ping the different servers where I play games to see my lag. The ping keeps timing out for any website that I try.
I have MSE turned off. Thanks Edit: I did some looking around the Microsoft supprt site. According to it, I am supposed to change an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) setting to allow an incoming echo request. Under the Advanced Tab in Windows Firewall, I don't see anything called ICMP. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/l...8WS.10%29.aspx

You link say->Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2
Are you using one of those OS's? Are you pinging a IP address or a URL? Posting a couple examples might be a good idea.

I am using Win7 64
In the Command Prompt I am entering: "ping www.pcmech.com", Enter and trying "ping www.ebay.com", Enter ...just as a couple of examples. I just tried it....it worked! I have no idea what changed. Average 88 milliseconds for PCMech. Ebay times out. Second question, while running a multiplayer game, how do I ping the server that the game is running through?

How do I go about getting the IP address for different game servers?
Edit: I found something called Netstat I run in the command prompt. Last edited by David M; 10-23-2010 at 05:19 PM. |
