Summary0001198: Change gateway ping test to arping in order to bypass ISPs that block ping
DescriptionThough blocking standard ICMP used by "ping" is an RFC violation (read: breaking the Internet), ISPs and system administrators still do it. For example, Amazon EC2 gateways are not pingable. The network status widget in webconfig will show a connection failure for Internet gateways blocking ping. That would be confusing to an end user of course. Perhaps "arping" is a better tool for detecting the gateway?
