someone suggested:
Try "ping google.com" for several hours, and see how many packets you drop.
Tim:
I hope you don't mean continuously. That would constitute abuse.
James Wilkinson:
That's a fairly harsh definition of abuse you've got.
It fits mine. It's not an attack, but it is an abuse. Having a ping test for 30 sec or so probably wouldn't bother anyone, but running it "for several hours" would sure fit my definition of "abuse".
They've made the ping service available in the same way as they make the HTTP service available. Accessing Google's web pages once a second would not be OTT for a suitably busy site.
What makes you think that Google has provided you with a ping responder?
Exactly, right on the mark, correct.
[snip continuous pinging sometimes necessary]
Fair enough, but do such things with the consent of the equipment owners. If you're testing your equipment, do so against someone that doesn't mind it.
Yep. Or buy your own.
This guy sounds like "it doesn't matter that I broke into the car repair shop and used the tools there, because I put them all back when I was through with them."
I suggest this: do you have a router? Try pinging that. I use a router between my DSL modem and my machine. It responds to pings. So does my DSL modem, for that matter.
