You want advise with respect to what?

Ping is a network diagnostic tool. If a ping times out, there is a network
problem or configuration that is blocking ICMP packets.

If you have a specific question about a specific configuration, tell us
more details so that we can advise you on for example router config,
network config, DNS, etc.
