Third Step: Ping Test

  • Type in:ping 208.67.222.222
  • Type in:ping 209.244.0.3

Note: The ping tests above should not succeed. If any of them provide you with a result, examine your static routes or restart the wireless router and try this step again until the ping don’t succeed. You might also need to use a different gateway IP such as 127.0.0.1 or 192.168.0.253. Basically any inaccessible IP that the wireless router allows should function.
