Anyway to run a ping test?
 

Can you run a ping test with a mogul or get a cmd prompt?

You can run ping tests with any PPC but not with a CMD prompt. it requires thier parety software Z2 Remote2LAN and some others out there. You can Google free PPC apps and look at thier networking sections and find several.

If you are testing speeds you can get ping to the speedtest servers from the phone, or alternatively you can tether (WMWifirouter, ICS) and get ping settings using the 3g connection. No way to run cmd from phone.

But people who normally did ping tests are looking for network latency and how many hops there all are. Speeds tests wont give you that. Not only that but you may want to ping a particular site (if pingable) to see if there are issues with that one site whereas your normal network speeds might be ok. So pinging a speed server when your speeds are fine wont tell you anything.

I guess the easiest way is to connect via ICS and run a ping test from the connected computer - that in conjunction with Field Test Mode should tell me everything I want to know

He didn't really specify what his purpose was, so I suggested both options of a speedtest or pinging on PC's cmd prompt using 3g connection using ICS or WMWifirouter. That is how I would do it but not the answer he was looking for I am sure.

I was looking around and came across this software for you, called pocket ping. It is freeware and works pretty well allowing you to ping directly from the phone without hooking it up.

You can also perform the ping test here
Through this you will know the connection speed.
