Answer
Use this shell script. Found on http://jeromejaglale.com/doc/unix/shell_scripts/ping
#! /bin/sh # -q quiet # -c nb of pings to perform ping -q -c5 google.com > /dev/null if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo "ok" fi
Put the ping in a loop or run the script with cron. Instead of echoing you can send a notification.
