Hi
try this sample code

// Ping.cs - Ping utility written in C# and .Net similar to the classic
Ping.exe

// Supports
// -t Ping the specified host until stopped.
// -a Resolve addresses to hostnames.
// -n count Number of echo requests to send.
// -l size Send buffer size.
// -w timeout Timeout in milliseconds to wait for each reply.
//
