  5. Done, now the computer will notify you when your internet is down

From NPM

Once running the script make a ping to google (plubic dns on 8.8.8.8) every 10 seconds, if one of those package is lost the script will send 10 packages in less than 10 seconds to make sure if your internet connection is down.
