Hello,

i have Airtel broadband and a Tata broadband connection. i have around 50 pcs connecting

through a airtel broadband connection. both are dsl connections with my phone line going

into dsl modems and a ethernet cable going from dsl modem directly into switch. currently

only airtel connection is connected with static ip on my private lan and usings the airtel

isp DNS servers as dns ip address and the default gate way as 192.168.1.1 (ip add of the

dsl modem). All Pcs are connected in a workgroup.
when in full use my users complain of certain web pages not opening. when i ping internet

addresses like yahoo or google i get 2 reply packets and 2 lost packets. i suspect that a

single broadband connection is not able to sustain 50 simultaneous downloads/browsing. is

there any device which connect to both DSL and make one line so that its give me high

(can i used DUAL WAN ROUTER.suggest me how it work or configure on my Lan.......)
speed simultaneous browsing .help needed urgently.

Ping is actually an acronym! And it stands for....wait for it......Promiscuous InterNet Groper
-another useless fact remembered from my Unix training days!

Actually tried that reverse pinging for the domain name. No luck Leo, not even on your site.
Just returned the ip address. :-(

Close enough! Sonar works by measuring the time delay in sending a pulse of sound into the water and the return echo and - knowing the speed of sound in water - calculating the range from that info. Similar to Ping in a network - only it stays dry!

I have watched many war-movies about submarines. The submarine-hunters "ping" the submarines with SONAR. I believe that this might be the origin of the term in computer usage.
