Problem
I tested a network issue and I just started using Linux on my netbook (works great!). It seems that there shouldn't be any difference in sending ICMP packets, but I want to be sure about this. Is there any significant difference between Linux and Windows ping (except the default packet size)?

Low Risk
There should be little difference at the network layer. They do behave differently. The Linux ping does not terminate by default. You have to interrupt it (Ctrl-C) to end it and get a summary report. The Linux ping also has many more diagnostic feat…
