Unable to ping servers

Hello @GentlemansKiller
It looks like the VPN is connected when you try to ping the servers.

It has no sense to ping servers when VPN is connected. So, the daemon just skipping this operation.
Otherwise, the ping result will be relative to the server you currently connected to (not to your current location, as expected)

@stenya Okay makes sense, as you said on the UI issue as well.. And also as I mentioned on the other issue, do you think this could be implemented as an option to ping during connection? Let me know your thoughts

@GentlemansKiller What is the use case for it?
Pinging the servers in the connected state says nothing about real latency to your current location.

@stenya oh ok, so the app is not able to ping from my physical location to those servers while the VPN is connected, got it. Sorry, i guess i didnt understand that part :) Yeah, in that case, if the app can't do that, then there would be no use, true.
