[SOLVED] Is there an app which gives a notification when there is no longer an internet connection?

[Richard_268]

My internet disconnects once in a while, and I end up losing progress when playing some online games, which should in all honestly be offline in the first place anyway. Is there a way where I could get a notification when the internet is down, as the game itself doesn't give me a notification. I am on Windows 10.

A brief Google search came up with this:

I know nothing about this software. As always, you should carefully research and screen anything you download from the Internet

Perhaps Powershell:

You would need a script that runs a background loop monitoring the status of the network adapter being used.

Then if the status changes the script would open a window and present the applicable notification.

However, how close are you to the router/modem? Any status lights?

For the most part when there are internet/connection problems I can see that by looking at the LED's.
