 10.0.2.x from the QEMU virtual DHCP server.
 
-Note that @code{ping} is not supported reliably to the internet as it

+Note that ICMP traffic in general does not work with user mode networking.
+@code{ping}, aka. ICMP echo, to the local router (10.0.2.2) shall work,
+however. If you're using QEMU on Linux >= 3.0, it can use unprivileged ICMP
+ping sockets to allow @code{ping} to the Internet. The host admin has to set
+the ping_group_range in order to grant access to those sockets. To allow ping
+for GID 100 (usually users group):

+echo 100 100 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ping_group_range
+@end example
 
 When using the built-in TFTP server, the router is also the TFTP
 server.
