and btw, if you check it out, you can see that it uses:
shell '%Comspec% /q /e:1024 /c for /F "tokens=2 delims=[]" ...so it does it with shell too and even uses temp file, which I would want to disclude.
anyway, when using this UDF, you don't need to code it yourself and you can just do ping()-calls.
