Here's some C# code. Should be fairly easy to translate:

Huh. Sorry about the blank message. I most definitely typed something,
but apparently lost it somehow...anyway:

I've been unsuccessful in my hunts for a way to simply ping an IP using
VB.NET, and to identify whether or not it was a success or failure.
I'll need to do this multiple times, and track responses for each ping
(setting a specified timeout as well). Any insight?

Thanks!
Al

Byxbee, Race

Hey,

Try this...

Dim tcpClient As New TcpClient()
Dim myIP As IPAddress = IPAddress.Parse("192.168.1.2")
Try
'You can change the 11003 to whatever port you wish to hit (i.e.
8080)
tcpClient.Connect(myIP, 11003)
Catch e As Exception
'Do what you want in here if the ping is unsuccessful
End Try

Race

Dunne, Joe

Race, your code is not pinging although it does verify the other end exists.
To ping a computer you do not use port numbers or need to logon which are
Router/gateway filtered and thus would effect your code. Just wanted to
point this out FYI.
To answer the original question
There is a sample via Visual Studio Magazine.
