I use an app called IPMonitor. It can be set up to ping a single, or series of computers every x# of minutes. In the event of a failed reply (you can set the # of retries) it will log the event, and can notify you by means of an audible, visual, or e-mail message. You might find it useful.<br />

Question: &nbsp;Is it possible to somehow monitor that box and get a Mail everytime it loses connection. (Maybe through another box, or even it sends a mail after it is reconnected)<br />
<br />
Valid Answer: &nbsp;If you're a xNix guru, you could do a ping script to do it and use sendmail the results if failed.<br />

How to Monitor Internet Connectivity of a Remote Linux Box

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

A Linux distribution is an operating system made as a software collection based on the Linux kernel and, often, on a package management system and are available for a variety of systems. A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software, documentation, a window system (the most common being the X Window System), a window manager, and a desktop environment. Most Linux systems are open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, allowing modifications to the original software. Over three hundred distributions are in active development, including commercially backed distributions (such as Fedora, openSUSE and Ubuntu) and community-driven distributions (such as Debian, Slackware, Gentoo and Arch Linux).
