I have installed it but with this script I have this error:
Error
pin.rb:5: parse error
t = Net::PingTCP.new(192.168.1.1

Script
require 'net/pingsimple'

# check with udp or tcp ping

t = Net::PingTCP.new(192.168.1.1)
#u = Net::PingUDP.new(host)
#e = Net::PingExternal.new(host)

if t.ping
puts "Host is alive"
unless t.warning.nil?
puts "Warning encountered: " + t.warning
end
else
puts "Couldn't connect to host: " + t.exception
end


Please can you say me how to write a scrip correct that to do a ping to
192.168.1.1 ????
Thank you
