This small program was created 2 years ago with the purpose of being run on a webserver which periodically tries to reach an internet hostname to check if it's reachable and if the internet connection is up. (My plan was to monitor the SLA for my Internet connection).

Now I have started working again on it.

Few tweaks coming up shortly:
-logs for downtime
-doesn't exit when the host can't be reached
-a GUI

Features

  • Platform independent
  • Simple Java code
  • Console-based
