Ever wish you knew how long the Internet was down last night? WebCheck, will detect an interruption in your connectivity to the web no matter what the cause; your ISP, your local telephone or cable line, your router or hub, your wireless connection or even your iPhone®, iPod touch® or iPad® itself.

Here’s a brief list of WebCheck’s features.
•Automatically do periodic checks of your Internet connection status
•Manually perform a connection check at any time
•Records pertinent information into a log file, complete with time and date stamps.
•WebCheck Version 1.10 stays in foreground mode so monitoring continues weather running on battery or connected to power.
•In IOS 5, WebCheck Version 1.10 will dim the screen after 2 minutes of hands-off operation. Any touch will restore the screen to its previous brightness level.

WebCheck’s functionality is available on two screens.
The Front Screen:
•Automatic monitoring can be started or stopped
•Manual Checking of the connection status can be done
•The total connection up time and connection down time for the most recent monitoring session are displayed.
•A simulated oscilloscope screen shows a nice animation of an outgoing pulse whenever a connection check has started and an animated “echo” image when the connection has been verified.
•Sounds corresponding to the beginning of a connection check and the completion of a connection check are provided.

The Back Screen:
•Automatic monitoring can be started or stopped
•Manual Checking of the connection status can be done
•Sounds can be muted
•Provision for specifying which of three URLs are to be used to check the web connection.
•The delay between successive checks can be set. You can choose from four delay times; 10 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, and 5 minutes.
•The log file is visible at all times.
•Events such as gaps in connectivity to individual URLs, starting and stopping monitoring, exiting and restarting WebCheck while monitoring, changing delay time between checks or changing URLs are recorded in the log file, along with time and date stamps.
•The log file can be cleared out at any time.
•Simulated lights indicate the status of the URLS with three colors. Green for “connection Ok”; Yellow for “Connection Check in Progress”; and Red for “Connection Attempt Failed.”
