There is no TTL property in Indy 10, or Indy 9 for that matter. It looks
like you are trying to use very old Indy code, probably from Indy 8 or
earlier.

You are probably not using the latest 10.1.5 snapshot. That has already
been addressed.

That is a side-effect of the compiler not being able to find the ReplyStatus
property.

That is not the correct thing to do. TIdICMPClient does not use TIdReply at
all.

I do not recommend that approach. A lot of servers have pinging disabled,
so you can potentially get false negatives. If you really want to know if
the Internet is available, then you should try downloading something simple.
For example, send a request to http://checkip.dyndns.org and see if you get
a valid response back.
