I tried a few connections monitors out there and they are graph based which doesn't help me much. I need to be able to tell if that internet went down(even if for only 1sec, if I'm reading I can't tell), in the graphs you cant distinguish between inactivity and periods where the connection died

It needs to be something passive that I just check the logs after. I will have to monitor everyday all day so any active solution is not optimal

Quote tracker will tell you when you've lost the connection to your broker for whatever reason.
