Is anybody else able to ping ravib.com ?
It used to work before but all I get back is Request timed out now. Other sites are fine.
If you are able to ping that website, why can't I?
-
Works fine here...
-
Ditto. Here in California.
-
Were you banned/ kicked perhaps ? ?
Or are you the Site admin lookin for hits ? ?
-
As far as I know, I am not banned. No reason to be banned. I don't flood the site.
I am not the site admin. I just ping the site in batch to see if it is running. After it establishes a ping, the batch ends.

There must be more going on with the batch... ;D

Not a batch issue. I tried this at the command prompt as well. Same problem.
The webpage loads fine but just can't ping it.
-
The site/server is configured to ignore pings.

That is possible though pings used to work. The reason I ping the site is that his program, WeatherMate requires ravib.com operational to function. (see attachment)
If the ping is successful, the batch starts WeatherMate and ends otherwise it loops every 60 seconds and pings again.

They probably changed the config because somebody kept pinging them every 60 seconds. :P
I can't ping it.
The website http://ping.eu/ping/ can't ping it.
My VPS cannot ping it.
etc.

I can't ping it.
The first two posters were able to ping the site. That is unless pinging was recently blocked from certain IP/countries. I don't know.

Honestly I doubt they pinged it. They probably visited it in their browser.

Here is another thought.
A. Some web sites just do not line pings.
OR
B. The configuration of a router or firewall might stop pings for some sites.
In either case, you can use another kind of tool to find out if a site is working.

I can't ping it from work or home.

Using my LG Rebel phone running Android 5.1.1, I was able to ping the site. The site is ravib.com, the one posted. But, I was using a phone and not a PC. Here is the screenshot

Not unusual.
Reference:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ping_(networking_utility)
In case of error, the target host or an intermediate router sends back an ICMP error message, for example "host unreachable" or "TTL exceeded in transit". In addition, these messages include the first eight bytes of the original message (in this case header of the ICMP echo request, including the quench value), so the ping utility can match responses to originating queries.
But that does not really tell you what is wrong with the site. It just tells you that the ping does not work.
The objective is to see if the web site is up and doing normal HTML stuff. -Right?
When piing does not work, you can use another kind of tool to verify the web site is working normally. You can find many in a Internet search.
Verify website is online without ping.

Not found in above search was:
Network-Tools (https://network-tools.com/)
This is my favorite way to see if either the host server or my own website is down. It gives a detailed trace and also provides DNS information and WHOIS details. :)

Screenshot clearly shows that there was no ping reply. 100% packet loss.

I guess you do not understand how networking works. Your ping clearly shows 100% packet loss.

Oh. Sorry. That was the first time I tried to ping, now know ping failed. Good to know. Thought packet lss meant something.

I have encountered an issue recently that I am unable determine the cause of. There is a website I needed to access and was unable to access it so I called the customer service department of the website's organization and they told me after some troubleshooting to try to open the website on a different computer. This suggestion worked. I was able to access it with no issue on another Windows 10 computer. In fact, I was able to access this website on my smartphone and a Macintosh computer that are all connected to the same network.
Your comments have nothing to do with this question. We are talking about getting a PING response. Not whether the website loads in your browser.
