After you connect with your ISP via AmiTCP, try to ping
either your ISP or mine with this command in a Shell:
ping delphi.com
or
ping epix.net
After about 5-10 seconds use CTRL-C to break out of the ping
routine. Look at the resulting line and notice the
percentage of packet loss. Anything less than 100% packet
loss is good enough for now. If you see 100% packet loss
then you've most likely messed up the AmiTCP configuration at some
point.
