Log of lost internet connections












0















I am having a big problem with lost internet connections with my DSL.



I would like to create a log to be able to show the technician when he comes next week.



I have this.



while true; do
date >> Internet_Connection_Log.txt
echo >> Internet_Connection_Log.txt
ping 47.182.239.232 -c 1 >> Internet_Connection_Log.txt
echo >> Internet_Connection_Log.txt
sleep 180
done


I would like for it to only log pings that generate 100% packet loss.
Thanks.

  • Perhaps: ping -c1 47.182.239.232 | grep 100 >> Internet_Connection_Log.txt

  • journalctl $(type -p NetworkManager) will show the logs the system already has.
