Need help! Ubuntu 11.04 wireless problems

[dooglus]

Thank you so much for the updated code.  I'll have to try it out when I get home.

Just curious, would this work in the code?

Code:

ping_pause=5*60

I'm not sure which prog language the bash script uses.

Also, would it be possible to have the bounce prog create a log of the time and date for each time there is a failed ping attempt?

Yean, $((5*60)) to do maths, not just 5*60

And in .xprofile:

Code:

/path/to/script >> ~/bounce-log.txt &

will make it append to the end of bounce-log.txt while it's running.

You'll see all the successful pings in there too, so comment that line out if you don't want them.
