Pingbar – Connectivity Monitor at Mac App Store analyse

Pingbar is a small menu bar app, that constantly checks your connection to a server. What can I do with it? –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– – Check your internet connection in a public WiFi hotspot, like your favorite coffee shop. Know immediately when your connection has a problem (and not that site your trying to visit)! – Use it as a server or service monitor. Check if a certain service on your server is responding normally, like your webserver, mailserver or any other service that responds on a TCP port. Get instantaneous notifications on your desktop, if something’s wrong! Features –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– – Custom server and port – Custom checking interval – Silent status indication via menu bar icon – Native eye-catching notifications via OS X notification center – Great notification control (sound, connection return, annoying mode) – Automatic launch at login (if you wish) – Checks the whole connection from you to any server you like – Works with any open TCP port – Nearly zero battery consumption! – Yosemite support (woohoo Dark Mode!) Note: While the name may suggest that an (ICMP echo) ping is performed, the app actually creates a socket connection to the server/port. ICMP ping may be implemented in future versions.
