MMM-NetworkConnection

[AgP42]

Hello,

I try to monitor my internet connection as my WiFi disconnect a lot, but none of the avaliable modules (this one, but also the 2 originals ones “internet-monitor” and “MMM-connection-status”) are able to detect a disconnection…

When the WiFi is properly working, then I have the values displayed correctly, but in case of connection lost (I remove the wifi key…), then the module continu to display previous valid values.

I am on a RPI2 with WiFi USB key, can this be the origin of the issue ?

Thanks in advance for any help :slightly_smiling_face:

Installed as in readme file, fails to show up. No errors in browser. Module is not working.

Module is not working.

Uhh, I just installed it and it works just fine.

Post your config entry in a code block

[epi]

That is very strange, as I see nothing. OK, my code

{
		module: "MMM-NetworkConnection",
		position: "top_center",
		config: { 
			updateInterval: 600000,
			maxTime: 5000,
			initialLoadDelay: 2500,
			decimal: 1,
			displayTextStatus: true,
			animationSpeed: 2500
		}
	},

I copy and pasted your config entry and it fires right up. Did you follow the directions in the readme for installation and dependencies? Have you tried the module by itself? Have you modified any of the module files?

My terminal output upon launch:

@epi said in MMM-NetworkConnection:

module: “MMM-NetworkConnection”,

@epi

change in your config.js the name of the module from

module: "MMM-NetworkConnection",

to

module: "MMM-NetworkConnections",

I think that is your problem.

Uhhh . . . . no.

@Sandy2503 I changed to “-s” and still did not work.
@Mykle1 I followed the installation guide, incl. the dependencies. I did not modify anything. I tried the module alone (all other cfg removed), still did not work for me.

What is the installation folder for dependencies in your case?

[Mykle1]

@epi

Dependencies should be installed by running npm install in the MMM-NetworkConnection directory

Guys, can someone also make a simplified version? No need for internet speed metrics, just the ability to ping specific ip address and return as “internet is working” either “network down”?
