If the request times out (no reply is received), it usually means that the destination is unreachable. However, some network devices can be configured not to respond to a ping. The ping results will be displayed in a new screen; click "Back" on the Windows menu bar to return to the Diagnostics screen. If the specified address is intended to be reached through a VPN tunnel, check Ping through VPN tunnel. Traceroute - Lists all routers between the source (this device) and the destination IP address. The traceroute results will be displayed in a new screen; click "Back" on the Windows menu bar to return to the Diagnostics screen. 12-8 v1.0, October 2008 Troubleshooting
