Some kind of alarm when the internet goes down

Good day. I am using WiFi to connect to the internet. Someone else owns the modem and
gave me permission to use it. Sometimes, the modem is working, but looses the internet connection.
I want to know, does anyone know of an add-on or windows gadget or program that would let me
know when the net is out.

on windows 7 you could try the following (please note that my OS is not in english, so i may not get the exact right labels in my description): go to the windows task planner & create a new task. give it a name of your choosing and switch to the trigger tab where you create a new trigger (''launch task at an event''; protocol: ''system'', source: ''dns client events'', event-id: ''1014''). <br>then go to the actions tab, where you can set-up a custom message, which will pop up in a dialog once the trigger is called (or set any other action; for example you could make firefox open another custom tab through [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Command_Line_Options command line arguments], etc.)...

  • Can you still work  when the internet goes down?

    Since internet service in this country is pretty unreliable, will that make it difficult to get work done when internet is down? Where I live, high speed internet isn't even available, so will I even be able to use Photoshop at all? Should I just find an alternative app?

    Your Creative Cloud desktop applications (such as Photoshop and Illustrator) are installed directly on your computer, so you won't need an ongoing Internet connection to use them on a daily basis.
    You will need to be online when you install and license your software. If you have an annual membership, you'll be asked to connect to the web to validate your software licenses every 30 days. 
    Please refer the below FAQ link for more details:

  • Is there a  requirement to restart the JMS/Weblogc Server everytime when the DB goes down?

    Question:
    When the Database is shutdown gracefully everything was fine.
    But when the Database is brought down with shutdown abort the MDB consumer will never consume messages from the topic again. And we need to restart the WebLogic Server in order to get the messages consumed again.
    So is there a requirement to restart the JMS/Weblogc Server everytime when the DB goes down? If not, what type of failures will require the JMS/WLS restart?

    On a DB failure, a WL JDBC store service will make a brief attempt to reconnect before shutting itself down along with any services that depend on the store. 
    It isn't necessary to restart the entire WebLogic Server JVM to bring the affected service(s) back if you can use the Automatic Service Migration feature.  ASM can automatically restart a failed service on a different WL Server in the same cluster, and/or can try a restart-in-place for the service if the service's original host WL Server JVM is still running.   The Automatic Service Migration (pdf) white-paper has a thorough discussion of this area.
    In addition to ASM, there's also a "whole server migration" option that can automatically restart or migrate an entire WL server.

  • Every day the Internet goes down

    The Internet goes down. I got told it was the router not strong enough to stream everything in my household so I bought a $300 router....and still have problems!!!

    Does your Internet connection actually "go down" (i.e. the green lights on the AT&T modem/residential gateway turn red or go dark)? or is it a bandwidth issue (too much streaming and everything studders or slows down)?- Same with wired devices vs wireless?- All devices, laptops, phones, tablets affected at same time?

  • How to show  an error Page in Weblogic when the server is down

    Hi ,
    I heard that every container has the facility to show an error page when the server is down and (when the request has arrived at that time ).
    Please tell me how to configure this in BEA weblogic ??
    Thanks .

    Hi,
    From my understanding weblogic dose not provide the thing which you are asking for, reason is given below.
    - An application is deployed only on managed server one (MS-1)
    - Now if the request comes to the server (MS-1) when it was running and then for some reason MS-1 goes down then weblogic server would be able to send any response back to the client as its down.
    - Hence nothing can be done as the request object is been lost when the server goes down or even cant redirect to an error page as for doing that too the server has to be up and running.
    However there are other way round which can help you overcome this issue as shown below
    - Use Clusters with few managed servers in it which gives you high availability and load-balancing.
    - Use any web servers like Apache in front of weblogic servers.
    Using the above things you can also use customized HTTP Error Responses with error-page element in web.xml and create your own error pages which can be re-directed for the web server side also. For more information go through the below links

  • IOException when remote client goes down in Linux

    Hello all -
    This my first post here. I have ran into a bit of an issue with some code I have written. I have written a small client/server application that works on the premise that if the remote application ends, the socket will be broken, and an IOException will be thrown. I then catch the IOException and then end the particular thread associated with that socket. This works fine in Windows, but when I kill the remote application in Linux, an IOException is never thrown on the server, it's as if the socket is still there even tho the application ended. I'm thinking there is something different that happens when I kill a process in Linux vs Windows. I have tried using the SIGINT, and SIGTERM switches for kill but they made no difference. Does anyone have any idea, admittedly I am a Linux noob, thanks!
    -Kam

    If the server is reading when the client goes down it won't get an IOException, it will get an EOS condition: read() returns -1, readLine() returns null, readXXX() for any other X throws an EOFException.

  • If the Internet is down can I still watch TV?

    I'm currently with TalkTalk TV and am considering switching. With TalkTalk TV if the Internet goes down the set top box becomes useless, you can't watch live tv (even through the aerial) or watch recorded programmes that are stored on it. Is BT Vision the same?

    From experience, I find that the EPG goes missing after a few days now, it used to be 2 weeks - thanks BT!!
    You can still watch freeview, but without knowing what you're watching
    As Guilbo mentions, you'll not be able to set up or manually record anything after a certain time - can't remember how long this is but it aint long.
    There is no time limit for playing back stored recordings
    Though if the box is switched off at the mains and back on again without an internet connection, you've got nothing.

  • I have just got an iMac 21" and it continuously freezes when it goes to sleep and also when the internet is trying to load, i have tried three different browsers but it still does it (safari, google chrome and firefox), does anyone know what is wrong?

    I have just got an iMac 21" and it continuously freezes when it goes to sleep and also when the internet is trying to load, i have tried three different browsers but it still does it (safari, google chrome and firefox), does anyone know what is wrong?

    To fix the freezing when sleeping problem go to System Preferences>Energy Saver and set 'Computer Sleep' to 'Never'. It seems there is a problem for some with Bluetooth failing to wake after sleep. This fixes it 100% for me and many others on here, until Apple issue a software update to address it.
    Not sure what to suggest on the internet problem. I assume you are connected and receive and send emails OK.
    Edit: To try to troubleshoot the internet issue maybe try turning the Firewall off: System Preferences>Security & Privacy>Firewall tab.

  • Quick Access: Anybody found some kind of early doc or blog going into more of the details on Quick Access?

    Regarding the Quick Access part of the navigation pane in Explorer:
    Explicitly pinned: Folders which are pinned by the user seems to get a "pin" icon
    Implicitly pinned: Folders frequently used seems be automatically listed below the explicitly pinned folders in the Quick Access list?
    Anybody found some kind of early doc or blog going into more of the details on Quick Access?

    Rather than disabling Quick Access and the new provisioning feature for folders and user concepts - in order to avoid the clutter or the UI being obscured by file history and frequent folders/files - try customizing/resetting the provisioning
    instead:
    I.E.: To use only explicit pins in Quick Access, disable frequent folders/files and may be libraries (now you have Quick Access to link to those folders/user concepts instead)
    For starters - I had not looked that up yet, there is a new tab "General" in Explorer > Folders Options > General where you can control the provisioning of which concepts you are presented with in Explorer,
    i.e.:
    - you can disable libraries
    - you can disable file history (i.e. not show either frequently used Files or Folders)
    - whether to start directly in at the main concept of the new provisioning when opening Explorer (start at Quick Access, which is default ... great :o)

  • HI. When I plug in my charger and use my macbook, I feel some kind of roughness on the body. It feels like some current flowing around it. Need help please.

    HI. When I plug in my charger and use my macbook, I feel some kind of roughness on the body. It feels like some current flowing around it. Need help please.

    My 2006 MacBook Pro and my 2011 MacBook Air both do it.  It happens because the earth ground stops at the power brick and is not carried through to the case of the machine.  It is not dangerous or the machine would not have been UL approved.
    Since I operate on battery 99.9999% of the time it doesn't bother me at all.

  • Having issues with my MacBook. Even when the internet is disconnected, apps are still closing and opening on their own. I sometimes do not have control over my cursor.....any suggestions?

    Having issues with my MacBook. Even when the internet is disconnected, apps are still closing and opening on their own. I sometimes do not have control over my cursor.....any suggestions?

    There are several possible causes for this issue. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until it's resolved. Some may not be apply in your case.
    1. Follow the instructions in this support article, and also this one, if applicable. A damaged or defective AC adapter could be the cause, even if it's the right kind.
    2. Open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and delete all pointing devices other than the trackpad, if applicable. Disconnect any USB pointing devices. By a "pointing device," I mean a peripheral that moves the cursor, such as a trackpad, mouse, trackball, or graphics tablet. A plain keyboard is not a pointing device.
    3. Start up in safe mode and test, preferably without launching any third-party applications. If you don't have the problem in safe mode, but it comes back when you restart as usual, stop here and post your results. Do the same if you can't start in safe mode. If there was no difference in safe mode, go on to the next step.
    4. Reset the System Management Controller.
    5. If you're using a Bluetooth trackpad, investigate potential sources of interference, including USB 3 devices.
    6. A swollen battery in a portable computer can impinge on the trackpad from below and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, this is likely the reason. The battery must be replaced without delay.
    7. Press down all four corners of the trackpad at once and release. If there's any effect, it's likely to be temporary, and the unit needs to be serviced or replaced.
    8. There's a report that a (possibly defective) Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter can cause the built-in trackpad of a MacBook to  behave erratically. If you're using such an adapter, disconnect it and test.
    9. There's also a report of erratic cursor movements caused by an external display that was connected but not turned on.
    10. If none of the above applies, or if you have another reason to think that your computer is being remotely controlled, remove it from the network by turning off Wi-Fi (or your Wi-Fi access point), disconnecting from a Bluetooth network link, and unplugging the Ethernet cable or USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the cursor movements stop at once, you should suspect an intrusion.
    11. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine and/or external trackpad tested.

    Hi All
    I hope all of you are fine
    Nokia 5530 xpress music: when I play the music without Nokia headset the volume seems great but when I play the same song with headset the volume goes down.
    is the problem from Nokia Headset or from the mobile itself?
    Thanks in advance

    I think this is Normal.
    Otherwise It wouldn't do your hearing much good if you set the volume to maximum and then plugged in your headset
