rpi-network-monitor

This project aims to build a monitoring and reporting system for the Network and Internet Status.

More details:

The personal devices we use have their own network diagnostics tools built in. And the apps running on those devices use those tools for a confirmed network status.

This project aims to do the same for the entire network, where instead of apps, there are people and devices across multiple rooms and floors.

This project can be helpful for realising that the Internet is down before my devices or someone in my house complains about the outage. The script is aimed at running on a Raspberry Pi so that I can use LEDs connected to its GPIOs for informing humans around it about the network status. I will add an API so the machines on my network can use this as well.

Demo

You can see a YT video of an RPi running this here.
