Description:
Mergic Ping is a Palm OS implementation of the UNIX PING program.
It was written as a support tool for Mergic VPN but, since it is generally useful for testing TCP/IP connections, it is being released as a free program.
Features:
- The host to ping can be specified as an IP address or DNS name.
- Pings can be configured to stop after a number of packets, a number of seconds or a Cancel button is pressed. The default is to stop after 4 packets.
- The time to wait between sending pings can be specified in seconds or to flood the host as fast as responses are received. The default is to send a ping every second.
- Packets can be filled with zeros, random characters or a custom pattern of up to 16 characters. The default is to fill packets with zeros.
- The size of the ping packets can be specified. The default size is 32 bytes.
- The maximum time to wait for a response is configurable. The default is 10 seconds.

Doesn't work on Palm TX. Every host times out.
