Please forgive me if there is already a thread on this. I searched for a bit and I didn't find anyone having this problem. I would like to start off by saying that this routing is working great for me, the only problem I am having is since updating to .6 When I try to see my ping I get an error message saying "something went wrong when trying to ping" and is says it all the time. The message pops up immediately as if its not really trying. Am I the only now having this problem? Is there a fix?

Try restarting the router. To do this, unplug the power for about 10 seconds and then reconnect the power. See if you can ping the host after that :)

Thanks Crossy,

 

Hi EasyMoney have you enabled your console on VPN by anychance? That causes the ping problem you mention.

Welcome AddieBoy.  When you get a chance go to the Introductions section and make a post. 

Maybe try just rebooting the router from Settings>Misc>Reboot Router.

Ok i made a post in the introduction section. As for the router it still seems to be messing up, On the VPN tab it says disconnected but the enable box is ticked should i untick it?

Check it >Click Apply. Then it should say connected.  Then uncheck it> Click Apply.  Then it should should go back to being Disconnected. 

 

But yeah if it is unchecked it should be disconnected.

Ping assist should work whether you enable the VPN or not.  I do usually game with the VPN enabled though due to latency/NAT issues personally.
