Ping looks up whether an IP address or host name represents an active host and what delay there is in reaching the host. Traceroute is similar but shows all routers along the way. Tools for pinging and traceroute include ping.eu and network tools. com. If you are asked to download a program for the test or run a program to check your computer, do not do so. Try ping and traceroute for panko.com. If ping fails or if traceroute cannot get all the way to the host, a firewall may be prohibiting ping and traceroute. What results do you get?
