Definately works! Just have a question though!
As in windows there is a command "ping (ip_address) -t" to ping continuously, is there any similar code in micropython?

On line 45,
h.id = urandom.randomint(0, 65355)
no longer works, changed line 45 to
h.id = urandom.getrandbits(16)
and everything is working again

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
File "uping.py", line 45, in ping
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'randint'

How to solve this issue? Please Help

Hello,
Thank you for this great work. It's really helpful. But, I'm getting 4 packets transmitted, 0 packets received while using IP and OSError: -202 when using google.com domain.
Please help!

Awesome lib, worked flawlessly!

@Enkumicahel, make sure you're connected to the internet 😊
