do you host your website internally? if not, ping that host and or do an HTTP
check of it.
one thing i highly recommend is using a small little VPS ($10/mo even) to do
some basic monitoring. I use one personally for testing and to monitor my
websites, friends websites, our email and dns services, etc. Also I use it to
monitor our corporate Nagios servers as a sanity check. :-)

Subject: [Nagios-users] monitoring external internet connectivity
All,
What is the best way to check if our network has connection to commodity
internet or not. What I am trying to achieve is to ensure internal network has
connection to Internet. One thing is to ping google check. Is this a good
idea or can someone suggest a better way to do this. Please advise on this.
Thanks
