Firewall – Can’t ping from the Amazon EC2 instance running Windows Server 2008 R2

amazon ec2firewallpingwindows-server-2008

I have been searching for a while, but it seems like most people have same issue but in the other direction. Meaning that the can't seem to ping their Server.

I am trying to use putty to access my machine from my Server on an Amazon EC2 Instance, and I can't seem to connect. I can't even ping Google from my Server.

Echo ports are open, and I've opened SSH ports. But I still can't even Ping from it.

Any help or a push in the right direction would be appreciated.
Thank you

EDIT: I tried turning the server firewall off for all profiles, and no luck yet. So it seems to be a windows configuration problem.

Have a look at your security groups in your AWS Panel

Make sure nothing is blocking it there.
