How To Ping A Computer

Click the start menu and type into the search box: cmd
Type: ping COMPUTERNUMBER or their IP

If you can successfully ping their computer you will get a numbered ms result eg 60ms, if its not successful you will get a unresolved request.

This is very useful because it tells you if you can make a connection with their computer. It is very useful when you can’t connect to a computer through whatever remote access program you have, for instance, if you ping their computer number it will also show their computers IP eg 10.30.41.103, you can then use that IP to connect into their computer.
