Thanks! Bruce has also sent me something similar too, many thanks for everyone's help! You guys are just great Smile

With the new ping,
Code:
PING www.l.google.com (66.249.89.99) 56(84) bytes of data.
From 202.130.xx.xx: icmp_seq=1 Dest Unreachable, Bad Code: 9
From 202.130.xx.xx icmp_seq=1 Dest Unreachable, Bad Code: 9
From 202.130.xx.xx icmp_seq=2 Dest Unreachable, Bad Code: 9
From 202.130.xx.xx icmp_seq=3 Dest Unreachable, Bad Code: 9
From 202.130.xx.xx icmp_seq=4 Dest Unreachable, Bad Code: 9
From 202.130.xx.xx icmp_seq=5 Dest Unreachable, Bad Code: 9

Any idea?
Btw, I just know that I've forgotten to disable my firewall when I try ping in WinXp Embarassed
Now with my firewall (McAfee) disabled, it gives:
Code:

E:\Documents and Settings\supxp02>ping www.google.com

Pinging www.l.google.com [66.249.89.104] with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from 202.130.xx.xxx: Destination net unreachable.
Reply from 202.130.xx.xxx: Destination net unreachable.
Reply from 202.130.xx.xxx: Destination net unreachable.
Reply from 202.130.xx.xxx: Destination net unreachable.

Ping statistics for 66.249.89.104:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms

0% loss for the first time...though I don't know what that means Smile

I don't know.

Ping yourself at 127.0.0.1 and at your Internet IP address and see what you get.

Increase the ttl

If you have enough ttl and your really are not blocking yourself with a firewall or something, call your ISP. Make their tech help explain it to you.

ping 127.0.0.1 gives 0% loss:
================
PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.130 ms
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.112 ms
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.115 ms
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=0.114 ms

--- 127.0.0.1 ping statistics ---
4 packets transmitted, 4 received, 0% packet loss, time 2997ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.112/0.117/0.130/0.015 ms
================

Ping ISP IP address still gives 'bad code 9' and
4 packets transmitted, 0 received, +4 errors, 100% packet loss, time 3050ms
================

How? By typing myping -t XX in rxvt?
And what should be the value of XX?
Thanks for your patience with me. I'm a newbie in networking Smile

As I know nothing about 'ping' I'm asking another silly question Smile
Does it really matter if ping results in 100% packet loss?
And is my connection speed affected by that?
My browser, gFTP, wget...etc all seems working, except pupget.
So perhaps I should leave it that way?
(Of course it wiill be great if I can have '0% packet lose', but maybe it's too difficult for a newbie like me Smile)

For what it's worth, the ping issue could be due to location. I live in Central America and the way things are configured here, most likely with my internet provider, I can't ping anything beyond the name servers of my provider.

In Windows you can see if this is your problem by opening a dos window and running a trace route command. This will show you all the connections made between your computer and google (up to 30 hops):

tracert www.google.com

I found this thread in response to my inability to use PupGet. And now I know why. Thanks for the insight!

Thanks for the info Hank.
I've tried tracert www.google.com in XP (with firewall disabled) and it says "Destination net unreachable". I guess that means it's the ISP problem?

Anyway, it's great that we now know how to get PupGet works. Thanks BruceB and G2 Smile
