This is a type of computer network tool normally used in order to check if a host can be reached through certain IP networks. There are some websites that cannot be reached no matter how much they improve their website. The Ping can help test it out.

The Ping can also be used in order to check the NIC of the computer. NIC stands for Network Interface Card. Take note that the ping is usually available in the different operating systems that are available. You just need to look for it so that you can use it.
