Try Security-->Firewall-->Options-->Policies-->System Rules (sorry if there are any errors, I'm translating from Spanish). In this menu you will see 2 options for Ping, try to activate them.

If you use ASOA, you can make this for all the group: Edit group settings-->Shields options-->Firewall-->System rules.

Good luck!!!
