I am using Virgin broadband and going through a Netgear WNR2000 VM suppilied router, when I try pinging BBC (command line) I loss all my packets, I can play online and download fine, just wonder why I can't any address (BBC just for example)

Any help would be great

Regards

BBK

Are you pining bbc.co.uk or www.bbc.co.uk

Sometimes it doesn't respond if you have the www for some reason.

Is the ping response turned off on your router

That only applies to the router itself being pinged from the outside.
