I have cable internet access. Sometimes (not often) it goes down. I also
have an old dial-up account. What I'd like to do is use salive to monitor
the cable. I can set up a few different pings to well known servers or
urls. This way if (1) is busy or down I'd check some place else. If all my
checks fail (the few I set up) then the cable is out. I have a great little
router that has dial backup (well sort of). You can switch between cable or
dialup. If the check fail I can then have salive do the switch (I think).
What I'd like to know is if the cable goes out, I'm assuming I'd loss my
wan side ip address??? I'm thinking this is what I'd use to see if the
cable is back up?? I can't use the normal check now because I'm dialed up
and the checks would work. So can I use the wan side ip address for my
check to is if the cable is back up??
Thanks
Regards,
Gene
