A python script that uses a socket and regular pings to a public server, logging any internet outages that occur while the program is running.

Connection Monitor and Outage Log

If you're like me, and you're looking to prove to Comcast/Xfinity that you do indeed have unreliable internet service, perhaps this will be of use to you.

Any internet outages which occur while internet_connectivity.py is running will be logged in the connection_log.log file as they happen.

I should add that Comcast lowered my rates a result of this hard evidence of poor service!
