How to Ping a System to See if It's Alive

Method 1 of 2:

Opening Command Prompt in Elevated Mode

  1. Go to command prompt by typing cmd in "run", or in the start menu search bar. Alternatively, you can go to all programs or programs in the start menu, then go to accessories and then command prompt. If it disabled by your administrator, go to windows powershell.
  2. While opening the Prompt/Powershell, right click on it and open Run as Administrator. You now have it opened in elevated mode.
  3. If you can't get into command prompt, or powershell isn't installed, type this in notepad:

Ping It

  1. Now that you've opened the command prompt, type:

ping IP

where IP is a IP4 address from somewhere, for example, this site. (e.g. of a random IP4: 167.545.23.7)
If you recover success with the pinging process, you should get:
PINGING STATISTICS: packets sent: [insert number here], packets received: [insert number here], loss: (0%)
If you get this, the pinging was successful.

  1. You can also ping a website. Type ping google.com to ping Google.
