Have you tried: Security -> Firewall -> Security?

Yes I have, but the only option available is to "Block Anonymous WAN Requests"
Cant see any other "advanced option" or somethig like that where i could disable the ICMP

Maybe you already know it, but to be shure: PING and PUNG are a particular type of ICMP packet, and to block anonymous WAN request option refers to PING, which is this thread title. So, checking this would make the unit doesn't respond to pings ("invisible" for the average Joe), but if you really want it to be invisible, you'll have to restrict admin access, close unwanted ports and/or work with scripts.
