I have tried to use the Internet Connectivity Monitor (ICM) to check out the 
connectivity of my BT Infinity broadband as I know it stops working sometimes 
and I need evidence to get BT to sort it out.

When I tried it yesterday, the ICM seemed to be working (and had registered 4 
short term disconnections) during the first few hours.  I then noticed (about 
an hour later) that the ICM registered 'Not Connected' from 16:11 onwards.  All 
the lights were 'blue' on my BT Hub 3 indicating all should have been OK with 
the internet connection so I tried my Firefox browser.  This connected to the 
internet without a hitch.  Only then did the ICM show 'Connected'.  It appears 
as if it somehow stopped registering that the internet connection was working.  
I have a dynamic IP address.  Could this be a problem?

I ran into this same issue when trying to monitor the connection to our 
corporate domain.  When I left it to monitor the default (google), it 
immediately started working correctly.  Perhaps there's something wrong with 
alternate addresses.
