About Icon Ping

Small macOS menubar application that continuously pings the google-public-dns-a.google.com address checking if the connection is working, and changing the menubar icon accordingly. The world icon will change color accordingly to the state of the connection: – Grey if we receive pong packets back from google-public-dns-a.google.com. Connection OK. – Yellow if we receive pong packets, but with a delay that is greater than 300 milliseconds. Connection Slow. – Red if we dont receive pong packets for three seconds or more. Connection not working. The application almost has no user interface at all, if not for a tiny menu used to quit the application. Set it to automatically restart at the next reboot: Click Apple logo in menu bar -> System preferences -> Users & Groups -> Login Items -> + and add this applications to autostart.
