Re: [Qemu-devel] win98 user mode network not working ...

[Jean-Christophe Dubois <jdubois@mc.com>]

"Note that ping is not supported reliably to the internet as it would require 
root priviledges. It means you can only ping the local router (10.0.2.2)."

So I guess this is not the right way to test your connectivity.
