... which means is connectable, isn't it ?
Connectable means could be mapped as an additional drive? |

I wouldn't count 1 time-out an error if maybe 3 make it to the target, but still a nice little script though. 
Keep up the good work BoBo! I really appreciate all your nice little scripts and apps on the forums. I use them a lot.

[EDIT]
Hey I just found out that ping sets the program exit code. So it sets ErrorLevel when using RunWait. Might be useful. |

Personally, I like Alive 1.2 to check for pingability. I use it in my ServerCheck script.
