What is Reddit's opinion of Ping & Net?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

I am unfortunately not an expert, but can you try this Android app (assuming you don't have root on your phone).

• If you can ping your gateway, then you should be connected to the device.
• If you can ping the DNS server, then the issue is not being able to reach the DNS server.
• If you ping "google.com" and it resolves it to an IP, you can reach the DNS server fine.
• If you get a return ping from "google.com", then your phone browser is being stupid and I don't know why webpages won't load.

If you get to step 4, also check other apps. Use a different browser. See if Hangouts or IRC apps work. If they do, it's the browser you're using. If they don't....I don't know.

When the phone is in a bad state, try doing a ping and dns lookup for pgorelease.nianticlabs.com and see what happens.

This utility will help with that: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ulfdittmer.android.ping&hl=en

Install this app then do a DNS lookup on reddit.com both while connected to WIFI and 4G.

I had issues with imgur on my computer and phone while messing with the router's DHCP and DNS settings, so the devices got all sorts of confused and couldn't reach some sites. Make sure the sites are resolving to IPs from names, and that the IPs are reachable by ping.
