- Enabling ping response on PTI router?
- Posted by John Philip on September 12th, 2004
I have a PTI 840 (cheapo from Dabs)router and I notice by default it
does not respond to pings on the WAN side.
Trouble is I cannot find the setting for this in the setup pages.
The router reports
Firmware CX82xxx_4.1.0.13
Customer Software 8x0_PTI_030104.00FA
Default Setting ISP BT(UK)
Anyone know what I can change to get it to respond to pings
Thanks
John

FWIW I wouldn't bother - it just shows any potential hacker you're

However on my Netgear the option can be found in the Ports menu.

Then there's a check box. Don't know if it works though.

with firmware version CX82xxx_4.1.0.21_S, it seems to be fairly simple
to set up _provided you don't read the manual more than necessary_
(which induces a headache). Read sufficient to discover its web
interface and the usernames/passwords, then throw out the manaual:-)
In this version, enabling ICMP traffic does indeed cause it to respond
to pings.
