Try Ping or Tracert using a FQDN as the target instead of an IP address. Both will do a DNS lookup before performing the ping or tracert.
Use the command line utilities to test connectivity, then send a test file across the network
Network utilities that allow remote access to a command environment include SSH (Secure Shell) and Telnet. SSH is the more secure option, providing encrypted communication for remote command-line access, while Telnet transmits data in plain text and is generally considered less secure. Both utilities enable users to manage servers and network devices from distant locations. Additionally, tools like PuTTY and Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) facilitate remote access to command environments, with RDP providing a graphical interface.

To configure a wireless NIC (Network Interface Card), you can use tools such as the operating system's built-in network settings (like Windows Network and Internet Settings or macOS Network Preferences), command-line utilities (such as netsh in Windows or iwconfig in Linux), and third-party network management software. Additionally, many wireless NIC manufacturers provide their own configuration utilities that offer advanced features and settings. For troubleshooting, tools like Wireshark can help analyze network traffic and diagnose connectivity issues.
1. ping, to test network layerconnectivity also called L3 connectivity. 2. traceroute, to trace how a packet reaches its destination, and to analyse routing problems if any.
PING command verifies the existence of a node on a network. Ping command is a command of command line interface . It is used to check if the host is alive or not.
"ping" will test for connectivity to a device at the Ethernet Address Level...but that does not mean the device's software is actually talking to the network or responding to the network. "ping" WILL tell you the device is wired up and has power applied to it's network interface board.
The comand is: netstat
Types of software utilities are as below: Disk Storage Disk Defragmenters Disk Checkers Disk Cleaners Disk Space Analyzers Disk Partitions Backup Disk Compression File Managers Archive System Profiles Anti-Virus Hex Editors Data Compression Cryptographic Launcher Applications Registry Cleaners Network Utilities Command Line Interface Graphical User Interface
I believe you are talking about the "PING" command. Open a "command" prompt and type ping/? it will give you all the parameters.
