PING Function

I need a PING Function in VB.NET for a GAME LAUNCHER program I have written. A quick check on the internet doesn't reveal any good written routines or classes to do this. Does anyone out there know of anygood PING ROUTINES?

Much appreciated.

It's in C#, but here is one that should work for you:

I brought this down and machine and ran it and got the following error :

Unhandled Exception: System.BadImageFormatException: The format of the file 'pin
g.exe' is invalid.
File name: "ping.exe"


Furthermore I really need a .DLL so I can get a return value inside my .NET application. The way this is written I cant do that.

Any other ideas?

Thanks

I would search this forum, there has been two or three examples that can be put in a class and compiled. I myself have posted a class that will do it. Just search for ping in the the vb.net forum.
