LED indication status of the internet connection

Software SW tweaks
1

Check ping on the gateway, DNS servers and an IP address on the Internet.
The status is indicated by the colour of the led WAN, LAN and PCI (wifi) .
WAN led is turned continuously when the error condition, if the connection is OK, the led blinks in auto -mode. (The color settings of the normal State agrees with by setting the LED colors in LuCI Rainbow.)

It is certainly possible to indicate a network error only with the LED colour of the wan. The function of each State, you can check the temporary removal of the character the negation of “!”.

Does anybody adjusted this scrips for Turris Omnia? or if it should work for TO, is there anybody with working script?

I don’t know where you see a problem, could you be more specific? The code above is working and tested.

The problem is that cron is sensitive to spaces, tabs and symbols for newlines et cetera. File is best in the SSH environment needs to be created - for example Midnight commander or other text editor. Files created in Windows do not work.

I tried to copy/paste your code in ubuntu, but no success. Would you be so kind and share your working files? (I will then just replace my GW and DNS IPs directly in Omnia using vi editor). Many thanks in advance.
