permission denied error to your ping queries is a message generated by your localbox & not the router. This could possibily because of no access for your user to ping usage or any firewall rule at your box is blocking these packets.
Can you post the output of

Mrs Plijvalez my router is buid by Telsey.com ( this is its site
http://www.telsey.it/Default.jsp ) and its model numer is CPA-K-TE4*T--; CPA-K-TE4*FWB.
I have looked for it on Telsey's site and I found some similar model, but I didn't find the same router's kind.
Mr AmitSharma_26 ask me to post the output of "iptables -nvL". I have executed this command and gotted the output, but I'am unsure if to post it or not. May be my provider ( Fastweb ) shoul be really unhappy for that. We risk a law action by my provider and even LQ rules not permitted this kind of things. Moreover in my first message I wrote that when I ping to my router I recieved as replay: permission denied; it was my mistake: the right output ping message is "operation not permitted". Sorry for that.
Anyway thanks a lot for all yours hints.

Permission denied meant that your user does'nt have rights to run that command &
Operation not permitted means that iptables is blocking it to do it.

I dont see any reason that why would your provider would be worried about the firewall ruleset of your own box. These firewall ruleset are meant for your own box & your own LAN, I really dont see any sense in your worries. And if you are worried about some real ip as being your identification; you can waive them off or replace them with some other ip to save yourself from some privacy invasion.

"box" is slang for YOUR computer. YOUR computer is YOUR Linux Box" or short version "box". Changing YOUR IP numbers could look like this. Really [192.168.0.10], change to [192.168.50.75]. Or really [192.168.0.10], change to [192.168.xxx.xxx]. As mentioned, to protect YOUR privacy. YOU should be able to open a browser. Then in the URL field, place the router's IP Address. Then press the "Enter" key. YOU should see the router's Home Page. Then YOU can read the data of YOUR router. Write down the router's username and also the password. This is important. Most Linus Distro's have at least two password's to remember. Most of us have more than one Distro. The math is simple. Write the data down, that way YOU can always go look it up. Hope this helps.
