Is there anything there i should do?
It looks like your router is set to respond to WAN pings. If you are not getting a response to the line quality test request, it could be ISP-blocked pings. Best way to find out is to ask someone to ping your current address.

You are on DSL. Whose? I know that Verizon does not block pings.

IM me with your WAN IP, I'll try.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22609543 Thu, 25 Jun 2009 14:27:11 EDT Re: Help me become pingable.. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22587693 sashwa : Let us know what they say.

A little late but Welcome to the site.

Have you tried asking your ISP if they are blocking pings?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22587595 Sun, 21 Jun 2009 16:20:47 EDT Re: Help me become pingable.. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22587575 Zeating : Is there anything there i should do?
