have no intention of breaking into, stealing from, or damaging your
network. However, there are hackers who may try to break into your

Allow PING from the Internet
PING is a utility, which is used to
determine whether a device is active at the specified IP address. PING is
normally used to test the physical connection between two devices, to
ensure that everything is working correctly.
By default the Gateway has PING disabled in order to make the device
more difficult to find on the Internet and less prone to attack.
