Great free app tells me internet connection status. I have crappy concrap cable(now xfunky) internet which at times is total crap for connection and internet reliability. I used to have to launch a program on my iMac to see if I was actually connected to the internet. Since I got this app years ago 2018, I can tell at a glance if i”m online or if there is something else going on. So, I absolutely love this easy program that just works away quitely in the background on the Menu bar, showing the green light when all is well, a yellow light warns something is funky and a popup window with a message tells the details, then the red light and a popup tell me that the connection is dead. Green light and a happy popup when back online. Instant knowledge…for free. It don’t get any better. Hats off to the creator of this wonderful little widget! Home run dude!

Have you ever "sent" an email and discovered some time later that you were offline and the email is still in your outbox? Have you ever typed a URL into your browser and sat there waiting for it to pop onto your monitor, and your browser reports that the site is unreachable, so you carefully re-type the URL and it still comes back unreachable, and then you go to a site that you know should be online, and you discover that it too is "unreachable"? This little app will let you know whether you're on or offline without having to check the lights on your modem. And... it's free!

update done August 23rd on MacBook Pro can’t make up its mind whether to be green or yellow. Constant switching back and forth is distracting. Had to quit the app.
Internet connection seemed to be constant and working all the time. Maybe my connection is momentarily off and on, but the browser seems to not mind.
So perhaps “on line” has become too sensitive to micro interruptions? Anyway, It is now UNusable.
