Hi
first of all tell , from which computer  u r trying to ping , means u trying to ping the google or other site from server (means the comp which has public ip) or from the clients......?

Mostly this is a pb of your Isp..., U have to call customer care regarding this problem...

Actually I have used many security tools ,ethreal is one of them


Ethreal is very good network analizer/Packet sniffer.., So u can detect the Network Performance..., But ethreal  works  better if u have  a HUB in your company or organisation ................, its not suited for Switch
