[Solved]_Pinging port Q

[goldenix]

Hiye.

I want to check if a game/login/site server is online. but how can ping the port?

This gives me error 4 [4 = Other errors]

$var = Ping("85.192.33.142:80",250)

If $var > 0 Then
    Msgbox(0,"Status","Site is Online, roundtrip was:" & $var)
Else
    Msgbox(0,"Status","An error occured with number: " & @error)
EndIfoÝ÷ Ù8b²¯zÉzºè¯]

Edit: See post 4 For solution.

You just need to increase the timeout on the ping:

$var = Ping("85.192.33.142",2000)
If $var > 0 Then
    Msgbox(0,"Status","Site is Online, roundtrip was:" & $var)
Else
    Msgbox(0,"Status","An error occured with number: " & @error)
EndIfoÝ÷ Ø@ÈL   l¢Ø^­æ¬¢{aÊ'yö¢çZºÚ"µÍÌÍÝH[Ê  ][ÝÎ

Is because just like typing "Ping 85.192.33.142:80" into a cmd window, a port specification is not allowed on the end of the IP.

oh looks like it was my firewall blocking me from pinging but i still need to ping specific port because the server has world server/ game server/ login server running on same ip but different ports.

Is there any other way to check it?

TCPStartup()
$timer = TimerInit()
If (TCPConnect("85.192.33.142", 80) <> -1) Then
    ;;server online
    MsgBox(0, "online", "ping:" & TimerDiff($timer))
Else
    ;;server offline
    MsgBox(0, "offline", "ping:" & TimerDiff($timer))
EndIf
TCPShutdown()

The ping part is not very accurate because it adds some time to the actual ping
