Ping TCP/IP server with AT Command

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how to ping a specific IP Address from the nRF9160 via AT Commands. I can't seem to figure out how to do a simple ping to an internet server, only using AT commands.

Additionally, is there a quick way to do a simple HTTP GET request via AT Commands. For example, start up the modem and ping google to make sure we have internet connectivity.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Jack Panetta

  • Hi Jack.

    There isn't any AT Command for pinging a specific IP Address implemented at this moment. I would recommend that you do the pinging by using sockets, look at the header file ncs\nrfxlib\bsdlib\include\nrf_socket.h and this tutorial.  There also isn't any AT Command for HTTP Get Request at the moment, but you can take a look at the http sample found in samples/nrf9160/http.

    Best regards,
