Dear all,

I can't ping only this mikrotik.
Before mikrotik version I can ping.
[sophal@MikroTik2]> /ping http://www.yahoo.com
invalid value for argument address.

Can you ping your dns servers?
/ping 208.67.222.222
/ping 208.67.220.220

ADD: I forgot my first question. Bad me! What type of hardware is this? x86 or RB? If RB, what model?

Thanks,

Yes, sure can ping 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220 (opendns). If I ping by ip address 100% can ping.

What version requires quotes on the domain? V3.14 doesn't. That is a V3.X shell display. It is in color.

Mikrotik version 3.13 and 3.14 I can ping when update to 3.18 I can't.
I don't know what problem on it.

I can ping without quotes on v3.20 :-/

Mikrotik V 3.20 still can't ping on Dell PowerEdge 860, other can ping.
I dont know why like that?

so "/ip dns" has all valid DNS servers that _really_ are working?

I'm use open dns, sure my dns is ok.
